Frampton Cotterell RFC host visually impaired rugby club

Frampton Cotterell RFC were proud to host Southern Spartans Visually Impaired Rugby Club.

Visually impaired rugby is an adapted version of the game that allows players with varying levels of sight loss to enjoy all the benefits of rugby through teamwork, competition and community.

Some facts about visual impairment:

• Over 2.2 billion people worldwide live with a vision impairment.

• More than 340,000 people in the UK are registered as blind or partially sighted.

• Sport and physical activity can play a vital role in improving confidence, wellbeing and social connection.

A huge thank you to Southern Spartans for joining us and to everyone who helped make the day possible. It was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about inclusive rugby and see first-hand how the game can be adapted so that everyone has the chance to play.
