Kalamazoo Tournament to be broadcast live.
I am delighted to announce that the Audio Network will begin this year’s
“road to Beijing 2008” with our first live broadcast of the season this
weekend, The 24th Annual USABA Midwest Regional Goalball Tournament, coming
from the WMU Student Resource Center in Kalamazoo Michigan.
The tournament, known also as the John Bakos Memorial Tournament, features
fifteen of the finest men’s and women’s goalball teams in the USA, playing
not only for championship glory, but for qualification for the US National
Tournament in Utah later this year, and of course, hoping to catch the
selector’s eye for the US national teams bound for the Paralympics in
Beijing in September.
We will be bringing you live action from start to finish, courtesy (as
usual) of our friends at the accessibleworld.org
We will be online live from 9am EST (2pm GMT, 6am Pacific) on Saturday March
1st, with the whole day’s round robin action, and then we will be back on
Sunday from around about the same time, right through to the crowning of the
champions in the early afternoon.
The actual schedule has yet to be finalized at the time of writing, but you
can keep in touch, and find out how to listen live by going to the following
address…
http://sports.pressakey.net/k2008
You will be able to listen to the entire event, live, and free of course, by
pressing number 1 from this page, or clicking on the visual link below the
audio player. This will take you to the accessible world auditorium. Whilst
in the auditorium, during the event, you will hear the commentary, and also
be able to text chat with others listening in. When you enter the room, it
asks for your name and a password – you do not have to put a password in,
just add your name and leave the password blank.
If you have not used the auditorium before, you must first download a small
plugin on your computer. This is available on the page when you press number
1 on your keyboard. It is a small, unobtrusive little program that makes the
whole thing work. You only have to go through this operation once. If you
have any problems, send an e-mail to us by pressing number 2 on your
keyboard.
The team lineups have been announced, and also this page, during the event,
will include a full schedule of games, including results and reports on the
games, keeping you right up to date with all that is happening.
Women’s teams competing –
Colorado, Kentucky, New Jersey, GLASA, Illinois, WMU, Kalamazoo
Men’s teams competing –
Kentucky, PABA Venom, GLASA, Illinois, Ontario, WMU Red, WMU Black, NE
Florida
Please pass this on to as many people as possible!
See you in Kalamazoo!
Bill
