Carolina Blind Hockey

We are bringing Blind Hockey to the Carolinas and we want you!

Blind Hockey is a form of ice hockey that has been altered slightly for the blind and vision impaired. There is a short video below that describes it. If you or someone you know is experiencing vision loss and would like to try this adaptive sport, please send me an email at Ted@NYMBH.org.  You can also find us on Facebook at Carolina Blind Hockey. We will be holding several free try-hockey events in the Carolinas in the upcoming 2022-2023 season and would love to have you out. Our home ice has not yet been determined as we are looking to see where the biggest interest lies and a rink that will support our program.
