Ahh, yeah, I used to be the goalie a lots cause I was shit at football.

it's sometime really hard to convince the school board (those UK board thing) that the deaf people can play against the hearing because of the difference, the hearing have the 'advantage' of hearing the balls, being able to tell how hard it been kicked, and the referee, etc. so in retrospect, it wasn't a 'fair' games for the deaf people, but still managed to carry on nonetheless.

same go to tennis but that failed and end up having a 'national deaf tennis championship' bollocks.

We were briefed to stop playing when the whistle went to indicate this to the Mary Hare guys. It seemed to work okay. As I recall they were good, competitive games and both teams were fairly evenly matched.
