On a visit to the Bisham Abbey National Sports Centre to focus on the importance of mental health in sports, the couple had a netball shoot-out and put on blindfolds to try a sport for the visually impaired.
The couple visited the Bisham Abbey National Sports Centre in Berkshire to continue spreading the message of World Mental Health Day, after the charity published a survey finding that nearly a third of young athletes feel like they don’t have enough access to mental health resources. William and Kate were joined by two SportsAid ambassadors, Paralympic swimmer Ellie Simmonds and Commonwealth champion netball player Ama Agbeze.
SportsAid later posted a social media video that showed the princess learning how to use the sound from a bell inside the ball to help her navigate without her sight. According to the Telegraph, Kate was able to get the ball past the goalie during a shoot-out, but William didn’t score a point. “It’s really hard, so disorientating,” William said afterward. “I imagine it’s a fun game though.” In a conversation with young athletes, Kate explained the broader importance of the day’s lessons.
