As was announced by GBN at the end of October, The British and International Golf Greenkeepers Association has invited all greenkeepers – whether members of the Association or not – to share their opinions on the structure and role of BIGGA.
The survey is intended to ensure that greenkeepers are at the heart of plans to develop the activities and structure of BIGGA and ensure it is well-placed to meet the challenges of future years.
The survey is the first step in a consultation phase that is being undertaken in collaboration with Sporting Insights, the leading sports marketing research organisation.
The questionnaire will give all greenkeepers the opportunity to have their say about BIGGA itself, whether positive or otherwise. Questions will cover the BIGGA membership offering, the value of benefits and initiatives that are currently available and how these might change. There will also be questions on membership categories, the role of volunteers and how BIGGA advocates for its members within the industry.
Those who complete the questionnaire will be entered into a draw to win £500 in Amazon vouchers.
This week, Scott Reeves, BIGGA Head of Membership, told GBN: “I would say that following the success of our recent conferences we have picked up a lot of positive feedback about how BIGGA is listening to members. We need to reach as many people as possible to make sure their voices are heard.”
Today, Friday, November 22, is the closing date.
