My Federation want introduce blind persons to play dammen.
I am searching news about how they can play dammen.
What kind of board they have to use?
Where is possibile found that kind of board?
I remember in Den Haag tournament 1999 was there
some blind persons who played dammen.
Does anybody can help me?
Thank you in advance.
