Title: University research on activism in sport
Post by: theacademic on May 24, 2021, 11:33:11 am

Dear all,

I am involved in some research looking at sportsmen and women's activism in sport. For those of you interested in this topic area, I have created a short survey that should only take a few minutes of your time: https://northumbria.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/athlete-activism 

Participation is completely voluntary, but I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on this subject area.

''What is the purpose of the study?

To discover whether fans think sportsmen and women should use their prominence to influence cultural and social change''

It sounds interesting especially as we have already had a bit of a mini-poll on Rashford.

It took me longer than 15 minutes - had a right good rant. Do I get royalties when the book comes out?

Thanks for those efforts wilts rover and anyone else who has completed the survey. It is still live if anyone has a spare few minutes.
