Club, Coach, Volunteer Survey
Hi,
Hope all is well. I am looking to find out as much information about you as coaches, volunteers, teams and clubs to support the development of the DDSL and everyone involved in it. I would very much appreciate your thoughts on this process. Please see below Survey Link. Can you take the time to complete this survey, forward it to your contacts in the club and ask them to complete the survey. The more information we get back enables us to make informed decisions about the league in the future. Really appreciate your effort with this and look forward to getting your thoughts. Any questions feel free to contact me. Thanks
