Abstract

Adapted sport for people with visual impairment promotes physical wellbeing, autonomy and social inclusion. Torball, a discipline derived from goalball, constitutes an educational and aggregative tool for blind and partially sighted students. It fosters the development of sensory, motor and relational skills, countering the so-called spatial, psychological and behavioural blindisms. This paper analyses its rules, history and inclusive potential in lower secondary education.
