Goalball

Goalball pits two teams of three visually impaired athletes against each other on an 18m x 9m court, with the objective of rolling a ball containing internal bells into the opponent's goal while defending their own. Tactile markings assist players in orienting themselves, and the ball must bounce once in the thrower's area to count as a shot. The game unfolds in two 12-minute halves and competition follows a traditional tournament format, a preliminary round followed by direct elimination.
Two goalball players are on the court, both wearing eye shades. The player in the foreground, dressed in a blue and red jersey with white stars on the shoulders, is in a low defensive position with his hands extended towards a blue goalball. The player in the background, also in a blue and red jersey, is lying sideways on the floor. The scene is set in an indoor arena with a red floor and a partially visible "Tokyo 2020" sign in the background.
