Have You Completed The Surf Sport Survey?Thank you to everyone who has completed the second of our Sports Surveys. For the process to have maximum benefit, we are urging more members to get involved and send us their responses. Our survey partner D&M research has used the information from the first survey to develop a more in-depth study. If you completed the first survey we particularly want to hear from you to refine the feedback we have received. This second survey is designed to go into greater depth and explore the barriers and drivers for participation in surf sports. You may find the process a little repetitive, however this research approach will give us a greater level of insight into how we might structure and present Surf Sports into the future.
