Canadian Golf Consumer Survey - Input Needed!

NAGA, a coalition of Canada’s national golf associations, is conducting a landmark study to understand the economic impact of golf in Canada.

In order to collect such data, NAGA is asking Canadian PGA Members to help distribute a survey to golf consumers (club members, customers, golfing public). This survey will measure the economic impact of golf in your respective community, province and country while generally helping to promote the game and the interests of all Canadian golfers.

As part of this study, NAGA needs to know how much money your consumers spent in the last 12 months on playing golf and on all golf related activities and purchases. If you are a Canadian PGA Member, please pass the survey link on to your consumers (email with survey link, post link to website, survey link through email blasts etc). Several golf facilities have already helped in getting this important message out to the masses. Golfers have taken note and many have participated in the economic impact study.

However, the survey closes Saturday Feb. 14th and in order to get as comprehensive a sample size as possible, NAGA is looking to Canadian PGA Members to help recruit more respondents from across the country.

In appreciation for the participant’s time and effort in completing this questionnaire, all respondents will be entered in a draw to win a weekend for two to the 2009 Canadian Open. The getaway is a weekend for two from anywhere in Canada to the 2009 RBC Canadian Open at the Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ontario, July 25-26th, 2009. The prize includes airfare, shared accommodations, car rental and tickets to the RBC Canadian Open (estimated value $2,000; cannot be redeemed for cash).

Below is the survey URL. The survey should take participants 12-15 minutes to complete.

Thank you for your help in collecting golf economic impact data in our country.
