SWINDON Wildcats will welcome Action for the Blinds, Swindon Actionnaires group to their game against the Guilford Flames at the Link Centre this weekend.

The Actionnaires club provide opportunities for blind and partially sighted children of school age to participate in and watch sports in a safe, structured and fun environment.

The children will receive their very own commentary from BBC presenter Stuart Morse, using radio equipment to broadcast to the children who will be wearing headsets.

The equipment has kindly been lent to the Wildcats by the Swindon Town Football clubs Soccer sight programme.

Wildcats General Manager Steve Nell said: "The Actionnaires attended one of our games last season and thoroughly enjoyed it.

"This time with the headsets and with a commentary they are in for a real great ice hockey experience.''

Meanwhile, Wildcats will be icing in support of the National Ban Bullying Week in their game on Saturday November 21.

The club, who have the National Bullying Helpline as their designated charity, will be visiting schools during the week alongside Christine Pratt of the Helpline to speak to the children on the subject, before taking on the Sheffield Scimitars at the Link Centre on the Saturday where funds will be raised.
