Football speaks in signs

Special guided tour for people with hearing impairments.

What does celebrating with raised arms signify? How do players communicate on the pitch without words? In this special tour for people with hearing impairments, we focus on the signs, gestures and non-verbal forms of expression used in football – inspired by sign language.

Together, we will explore visual communication and silent strategies in the game, from the historical hand signals used by referees to the creative communication from the fans in the stands. We will also examine the question: How inclusive is football today?

The tour is accompanied by sign language.

All interested parties, with or without hearing impairments, are warmly welcome!
