We do this under the banner of <a href=\"http:\/\/ajax.nl\/audio\"><strong>Ajax Radio<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 a familiar voice for Ajax fans wherever they are in the world. Sport Sounds is responsible for both the editorial coverage and the technical delivery. We work closely with German software partner <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mycrocast.com\/\"><strong>Mycrocast<\/strong><\/a>, which lets us stream audio reliably, accessibly and without delay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dapp\u2019re Strijders #2 - Meet Maikel, the visually impaired but huge Ajax fan! \u2665\ufe0f\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/p8dAOxAJmvI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Audio description in the stadium for blind and partially sighted fans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At home matches in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.johancruijffarena.nl\/home\/\">Johan Cruijff ArenA<\/a>, Ajax Radio doubles as <strong>audio description<\/strong> for visitors with a visual impairment. Through a <strong>dedicated channel<\/strong> on their smartphone, they can listen in from the audio-description section of the stand to a version of the live commentary <strong>tailored to them<\/strong> \u2014 without delay, fully in sync with what is happening on the pitch. Together with the club&#8217;s fan-care team, we made sure these fans can choose where they want to sit: in the regular stands, or in the accessible-seating area for some additional support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This kind of <strong>in-stadium accessibility<\/strong> is not just an important step toward inclusion \u2014 it is hugely appreciated by the audience itself. It is how we make the football experience available to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/sport-sounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG-20250321-WA0018-1536x864-1-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sport-sounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG-20250321-WA0018-1536x864-1-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/sport-sounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG-20250321-WA0018-1536x864-1-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/sport-sounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG-20250321-WA0018-1536x864-1-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/sport-sounds.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG-20250321-WA0018-1536x864-1.webp 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ajax Radio&#8217;s global reach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond the stadium, thousands of Ajax supporters tune in to Ajax Radio every matchday. Supporters on holiday, those who have emigrated or are working abroad, or simply those who cannot make it to the ArenA. Every week we get enthusiastic messages on X or by email from fans in Canada, Suriname, Indonesia, the United States and, of course, all over Europe. That makes Ajax Radio not just a service, but a connective thread for the global Ajax family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Interested in audio description or live commentary as well?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sport Sounds specialises in&nbsp;<strong>live audio productions<\/strong>, from in-stadium commentary to&nbsp;<strong>audio description<\/strong>&nbsp;for blind and partially sighted audiences. We deliver both the content and the technical side, and we are happy to think along about accessible solutions for sporting events. Want your organisation to invest in&nbsp;<strong>accessibility<\/strong>, or are you looking for a reliable partner for live audio?&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:diederik@zessenmedia.nl\">Get in touch \u2014
