Accessibility

This website

We build this site toward the WCAG 2.2 AA guidelines and run automated accessibility checks on every page before each release. Every page works with a keyboard and shows where you are on it, images have text descriptions, text meets contrast guidelines, and motion stops for anyone whose device asks for less of it. Videos have a pause button.

Our games

• Every game plays with touch on tablets and phones, and with a keyboard on laptops and Chromebooks.
• Soccer Kids and Hockey Kids have Simple controls with one main button. In Pickle Kids, Auto run moves the player so a kid only has to time the swing.
• Every game has an Easy level a new player can win.
• In Soccer Kids' Learn mode, the coach's instructions show on screen as well as being spoken, and play slows to 80 percent speed.
• Sound can be turned off from the title screen.

Where we fall short

• The games are drawn on a canvas, so a screen reader can't follow the play. The menus and buttons around each game are standard controls a screen reader can use.
• Teams are told apart by color, Blue and Red, and by which way they attack. There's no color-blind palette yet.
• The matches move quickly. Easy and Learn mode are the gentlest ways in, but there's no separate speed setting yet.

For schools and programs

If a student needs something our games don't do yet, tell us. A custom game can be built around it, and we'll answer your district's accessibility questions in writing before a project starts.
