 | | Annual Club Survey and Champion Clubs Awards
The annual club survey will be sent to all City of Cockburn clubs in March.
The survey is used to identify issues and challenges that clubs are facing and also how the City can direct appropriate resources to assist.
It is also used to identify clubs that are performing well and demonstrating best practice across their organisation. Those clubs will be invited to participate in the nomination process for the Champion Clubs Awards to be held in June. Clubs that submit nominations have the chance to win a share of $9000 of prizes across three categories: small club, medium club and large club.
All clubs that complete the survey will go into the draw to win one of FIVE $200 vouchers from Armando Sports.
If you haven't already done so, to ensure that your club receives the survey, please update your club contact details HERE by Friday 24 February.
