AT Banter Episode 450 - Voy! Canada's Women's Blind Soccer Team Takes On The World
Episode 528
Wednesday, 14 January, 2026
In this special crossover episode, Rob flies solo without Ryan but drafts in guest host Shawn Marsolais from Blind Beginnings and the Limitless Podcast to help explore the fast, loud, and gloriously chaotic world of blind soccer. They’re joined by Jillian Sloane, Ramya Amuthan, and coach Matt Greenwood from Canada’s Women’s National Blind Soccer Team, who share how a random Facebook post, zero organized-sport experience, and a handful of determined players led all the way to the World Championships in India. From yelling “voy” while getting hammered into the boards, to 40-degree heat, broken bones, a 17-penalty shootout, Canada’s first women’s blind-soccer goal, and a very Canadian Fair Play Award, this is a funny, honest, and inspiring look at what it takes to build a new sport and a National Team from the ground up.
