The sound of connection: a live football experience for everyone at FC Den Bosch

Starting next season, FC Den Bosch invites blind and visually impaired supporters to experience the magic of every home match right from the heart of the stadium. Thanks to Gazeti’s live audio commentary, provided by pairs of passionate commentators, you won’t just hear the technical play-by-play, but also the unique atmosphere that makes football so special. You are free to move throughout the stadium and enjoy the game with friends or family, no longer restricted to a fixed seating area—exactly as every fan deserves.

This personal and intense audio experience deepens the connection with the club and brings supporters closer together. The initiative is further strengthened by the efforts of Jelle van Glabeek from the FC Den Bosch Foundation, who has firmly integrated Gazeti into the club’s social policy. Rabobank supports this project out of the conviction that innovation and inclusivity are inextricably linked to a true fan experience: they align their name with a project that makes a difference and creates a positive impact, both inside and outside the stadium.

For sponsors, the audio stream offers opportunities for activation and a chance to enhance their social value. Above all: thanks to Gazeti, every supporter—regardless of visual impairment—is live anywhere in the stadium, in the heart of the emotion, connected to the match and the rest of the crowd. Together, Rabobank, FC Den Bosch, and Gazeti demonstrate that football can always be inclusive and that everyone is welcome where it counts.

For me, Gazeti has been a real eye-opener

Enthusiastic fan

For me, Gazeti is a real eye-opener. What surprised me just as much is the background information shared throughout. For example, I just heard that a Dutch player briefly lost consciousness in a collision in another match. And that this is already Polman’s 200th match.
