3. Notes Sports and athletic competitions are just as important in the Deaf world as they are to hearing people. Deaf athletes are organized into local, state, regional, national, and international associations representing a wide variety of sporting interests. Every four years, Deaf athletes and spectators gather to participate in the Deaflympics, the international games for Deaf players. The Deaflympics began in 1924 and are modeled after the Olympic Games, providing the opportunity to compete in an environment that does not penalize or limit achievement due to deafness. For example, starting cues are visual rather than audible, featuring flashing lights rather than the sound of a starting pistol or whistle. Thousands of Deaf players and fans descend on the Deaflympics, turning the sporting venue into a mosaic of sign languages from all over the globe. As Deaf athletes break down social and attitudinal barriers and compete against hearing peers, the ideals of competition and the Deaflympics becomes clear: Equal Through Sports. The football huddle was invented in 1892 by a Deaf student at Gallaudet University named Paul Hubbard. Concerned about opposing players being able to see his team’s signs and planned plays, Paul urged his teammates to huddle up. Quickly, the concept spread across college campuses and today, the football huddle is an important part of the game. The Deaf community’s contributions to the sport of football didn’t end with the huddle: Professional Deaf football players like Bonnie Sloan and Kenny Walker and Deaf cheerleaders Mona Vierra and Lisa Fishbein demonstrate that Deaf athletes are as skilled as their hearing counterparts.
