    That is some impressive spatial mapping going on with the sound and distance. They seem to pause for a bit before the shot, I wonder what they’re processing.

      I’m guessing they maybe have fully blind players, and partially blind players. The partially blind have to wear masks.

      Just a guess though.

      Edit: so actually according to Wikipedia:

      Teams are permitted to use sighted athletes as goalkeepers and guides;

      All players, except for the goalkeeper, are blindfolded.

      There are leagues where partially blind people are allowed to play, they’re ranked by level of impairment and can have x number of players at higher vision ratings.
