Blind Ice Hockey Saturday March 23, 2019 PART 1

This is Part 1 of 2 of Saturday's photos- includes Select Series:USA vs Canada West, Open Division and Low Vision Division games.

Canada played the United States during the 2019 Canadian National Blind Hockey Tournament at the Mattamy Athletic Centre (former Maple Leaf Gardens). If you haven't seen it, blind ice hockey is amazing. All players are legally blind, with many having zero vision (including all goaltenders). The top level teams (Canada West, Canada East and the United States) perform at a pace which has to be seen to be believed. The speed and intensity are again, amazing. There are also children, youth and low vision divisions which are equally remarkable. They use a larger puck (with ball bearings for noise), a shorter net (puck is silent in the air), a one pass rule after crossing the blue line before trying to score (to give the goaltenders more info) and a mix of vision levels on ice at one time to keep the teams even (black helmets = under 10%, white = under 5%, red = 0%). I shot both Friday and Saturday (i was unable to attend the final day Sunday - Canada West won Gold in overtime). For full official results and more info, please see Canadian Blind Hockey , Blind Ice Hockey , CNIB , CNIB Guide Dogs , Ice Owls and AMI .

Here are over 2300 Saturday Part 1 PHOTOS .
