Goalball is a team sport played by athletes who are blind or visually impaired. It's played on a court roughly the size of the one used for volleyball, and all players wear opaque eyeshades so that no one can see anything. The ball has bells inside that allow players to track it and the lines of the court are marked with string so that athletes can feel where they are.
