[Mdpobc] new youth sport opportunity

[Chris Nusbaum]

I do not know of any community team which practices at MSB. However, MSB has a goalball team in the league with all the schools for the blind in this region. Perhaps someone else on this list will know more about the status of these community teams.

Goalball (see YouTube) is a very popular and easy to learn team sport for blind and visually impaired youth and adults. A new Mid-Atlantic Youth Goalball League is developing to include NJ, PA, DE, and hopefully MD & NY City in the future. A new Philadelphia area team started twice a month practices in Dec., and they have offered to host some fun games.
