What makes the Accessible NCAA Tournament Bracket accessible is its use of structure. Each of the four regions is marked up as a level 2 heading. Within each region, each of the first four rounds is marked up as a level 3 heading. Within each round, the complete set of games is marked up as an ordered list, with each game marked up as a nested unordered list of two teams. Given this structure, screen reader users can navigates most effectively by jumping forwarding and backward between headings and list items.
Tips for Screen Reader Users
- Navigate between regions using your level 2 heading keys (in Jaws, use 2 or Shift + 2.)
- Within each region, navigate between rounds using your level 3 heading keys (in JAWS, use 3 or Shift + 3.)
- Within each round, navigate through games using the up and down arrow keys.
- In rounds where teams are not yet known, the feeder games are identified (e.g., "Winner, Game 1"). With this information you can return to the previous round using level 3 heading keys, and navigate to the indicated game to identify the teams.
- The seed within each region is indicated in parentheses following the name of each team.
