Help national understanding of how COVID-19 has impacted grassroots clubs
February 10, 2021 | by Matt Halfpenny
England Boxing clubs are being urged to complete a survey to help the Sport and Recreation Alliance understand the current landscape of grassroots sport and physical activity – and what support the sector needs to get back on its feet.
The last year has been incredibly tough for community clubs. Lockdowns, restrictions and social distancing has seen many temporarily close or struggle to deliver their much-loved activities.
If you are a club secretary, coach or volunteer, please take 10 minutes to complete this survey which will allow a greater understanding of what you need and how the Alliance can work to get every grassroots club re-opened and ready to welcome back your participants.
By gaining an accurate picture of what has happened to your membership, income and ability to operate, they will be able to more accurately evidence what has been happening and broker support and funding in conversations with government and other partners.
Please take part in this survey here.
Note that you will be able to save your answers and return to the survey provided you use the same device and IP address.
The Alliance will aim to produce headline findings from the data collected in early March.
The deadline to complete the survey is 22nd February.
