The balls are equipped with rattles so the players can hear where it's headed
I just listened to a news story on Deutsche Welle radio about blind soccer utilising a soccer ball that makes certain sounds. Players wear protective gears. There seems to be a league as well. Maybe there is a way to improve this and initiate a league in South America. It is the continent of soccer after all!!
Deutsche Welle Article on Blind Soccer
This is very interesting, playing soccer by the sound of the ball.
