Recently, Eye-Able also scored in sport. We are delighted to announce partnerships with three prominent soccer clubs: TSG Hoffenheim, SV Werder Bremen and FC St. Pauli. These partnerships are an important step for us! They take us a step further in our mission to bring accessibility to all areas of life. Soccer is a community sport and that's exactly why it should be accessible to everyone.
We are therefore delighted that TSG Hoffenheim, a Bundesliga club based in Sinsheim, among others, has teamed up with us. From now on, audio-based solutions will be provided for their blind and visually impaired fans. This includes not only audio descriptions of match action, but also audio versions of club-related news and information.
SV Werder Bremen is also on the team with us. In addition to working with Eye Able, the club also offers participation in inclusive soccer teams and training sessions in blind soccer.
As if these two clubs were not enough, FC St. Pauli from Hamburg, a club in the 2nd Bundesliga, has joined our mission. They too are now providing a range of technical solutions for their blind and visually impaired fans with the Eye Able tool. St. Pauli is also going further with accessibility. For example, the "Klartext" project was launched here. According to Michael Thomsen, Managing Director of CSR at St. Pauli, this is intended to "...offer our fans and members the opportunity to find out about our club and take part in events...".
We at Eye-Able are delighted that we have been able to work with these three clubs to make soccer a little more accessible. We want to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to experience the thrill and excitement of this sport. True to our in-house motto "Simply for everyone!". We give exclusion the red card!
