This 16-question, multiple choice survey has been designed to support you and your
club. It will help you to understand where there are opportunities to increase choice
for people with disability to be included in every aspect of your club.
To gain a broad picture of how inclusive your club is currently, we recommend
several people from your club fill out the survey. This could include coaches, players,
supporters, club staff and volunteers.
The survey has been designed incorporating work from Simplican et al’.s (2015) model of inclusion and Corazzo, M., & Dyer, J., A New Model for Inclusive Sports? An Evaluation of Participants Experience of Mixed Ability Rugby. Social Inclusion, 2017, Volume 5, Issue 2, Pages 130-140.
