Case Study: Basketball Ireland achieves accessible digital inclusion with Recite Me

Basketball Ireland boosts website accessibility with Recite Me’s 100+ language toolbar

Basketball Ireland, the national governing body for basketball in Ireland, sought to enhance digital accessibility on its website as part of its broader commitment to inclusion. Their challenge was to ensure everyone, including people with disabilities and those who speak English as a second language, could easily access key basketball information online. To address this, they partnered with vendor Recite Me to implement its accessibility and language toolbar.

The solution implemented by Recite Me provided an assistive toolbar featuring text-to-speech functionality, customizable styling, reading aids, and a translation tool with over 100 languages. This made the Basketball Ireland website an inclusive platform, allowing visitors to read and engage with content in a way that suited their individual needs. While specific metrics are not provided in the text, the result was a significantly more accessible online experience that brought people closer to the sport. A Basketball Ireland official stated that Recite Me brought the accessibility of their sport to the next level.
