Sports ASL

Sports signs are not commonly taught. Football, baseball, soccer, and basketball are an integral part of American culture and thus must be a part of ASL/English interpreters language schema. This workshop presented by Erik Hoover will cover the ASL signs for the fundamentals of the sports, the signs for professional sports team names, as well as common depictions and concepts used to visually show plays, provide updates and give commentary.

Participants will be able to understand and apply sports terminologies, emphasizing ASL-specific team signs, classifiers and depictions.
