Ulster Rugby vs Saracens

AUDIO-DESCRIPTIVE COMMENTARY NOW AVAILABLE AT KINGSPAN STADIUM

Ulster Rugby will launch a pilot audio-descriptive commentary programme for the 2015/16 season at tonight’s sold-out Champions Cup game against Saracens.

AUDIO-DESCRIPTIVE COMMENTARY

Having pre-booked the equipment, please call into reception anytime from gates opening until kick-off to meet a member of the team and to collect your headset and receiver. Season ticket holders will simply need to show their season ticket and leave their contact details when collecting the equipment. All other supporters will be asked to leave a small refundable cash deposit of £10 or € 10, in addition to your contact details. Equipment must be returned to reception within 30 minutes of the termination of the match.

Helping to ensure that Kingspan Stadium is inclusive for all, a dedicated team of volunteers will provide descriptive match commentary to enhance the match experience for people affected by sight or hearing loss. Starting approximately 10 minutes prior to kick off, the team will set the scene for the night, commentate throughout the match and during half-time. If you would like to avail of the match commentary at the Edinburgh game, you should contact Jennifer McFedries in the Ticket Office prior to 1.00pm on Thursday 3rd: Jennifer.McFedries@ulsterrugby.com.

Meet the Commentary Team Following a robust

recruitment process, five volunteers were invited to join our match night team. Pictured from left to right are: Connor, Paul, Chloe, Sam & Graham.
