Baby Blue Ballerzz is committed to ensuring that our website is accessible to all visitors, including people with disabilities. We believe that every person deserves equal access to information about our basketball programs, online store, and team resources.

We are continually working to improve the accessibility and usability of our website to provide the best possible experience for all of our users, regardless of ability or technology.

We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level. These guidelines, published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), provide a set of recommendations for making web content more accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities, including:

• ● Visual impairments (blindness, low vision, color blindness)
• ● Hearing impairments
• ● Motor impairments
• ● Cognitive and learning disabilities

While we strive for WCAG 2.1 AA compliance, we recognize that accessibility is an ongoing effort and we are working toward full conformance.

Keyboard Navigation

Our website can be navigated using a keyboard. All interactive elements, including links, buttons, and form fields, are reachable via the Tab key and can be activated with Enter or Space.

Alternative Text

We provide descriptive alternative text for meaningful images throughout the site, including player photos, product images, and team logos. Decorative images are appropriately marked so screen readers can skip them.

Color Contrast

We use color combinations that meet contrast ratio requirements to ensure text is readable. Our dark and light theme modes both aim to maintain sufficient contrast between text and background elements.

Semantic HTML

Our pages are built with semantic HTML elements (headings, lists, tables, forms, navigation landmarks) to help assistive technologies understand the structure and meaning of our content.

Form Labels

Form fields across the website, including registration, checkout, and contact forms, include descriptive labels and placeholder text to help users understand what information is required.

Responsive Design

Our website is designed to work across a variety of screen sizes and devices. Content reflows properly when zoomed up to 200% without loss of information or functionality.

While we work to ensure accessibility, some areas of our website may not yet be fully optimized:

• ● Embedded video content: Some highlight videos hosted on third-party platforms (YouTube, Vimeo) may not include captions or audio descriptions.
• ● PDF documents: Some downloadable documents may not be fully accessible to screen readers. Contact us if you need information from any document in an alternative format.
• ● Media gallery: Some older images in our media gallery may have limited or missing alternative text descriptions.
• ● Interactive maps: If used, embedded maps may have limited keyboard accessibility.

We are actively working to address these limitations and improve accessibility across all areas of the website.

Our website includes content and services provided by third parties, such as payment processors, embedded videos, social media widgets, and mapping services. While we encourage these providers to follow accessibility best practices, we cannot guarantee the accessibility of their content or tools.

If you encounter accessibility issues with any third-party content on our site, please let us know so we can work with the provider or find an alternative solution for you.

We welcome your feedback on the accessibility of our website. If you encounter any barriers or have suggestions for improvement, please contact us:

When reporting an accessibility issue, please include:

• ● The web page URL where you encountered the issue
• ● A description of the problem
• ● The assistive technology or browser you were using (if applicable)

We will do our best to respond to feedback within 5 business days and work to resolve any issues as quickly as possible.
