1. Satisfaction with the quality of the sporting experience survey (SQSE 2) Results for: Boxing June 2010

2. 2 Survey information Background to the SQSE survey: Understanding and measuring the quality of experience is a crucial element of the Sport England Strategy 2008-11 and is central to Sport England’s commitment to develop a world-leading community sport system. Within the ‘sustain’ element of Sport England’s strategy, the key outcome measure is to achieve a quantifiable increase in people’s satisfaction with their experience of sport. The Sustain outcome is concerned with keeping people engaged in sport and has the central notion that people’s continued engagement in sports is driven by the fact that they enjoy taking part and that this enjoyment is in turn impacted significantly by the quality of the sporting experience. The SQSE survey provides a statistically robust measure of satisfaction with the quality of the sporting experience by individual sport, as a basis for tracking the achievement of targets for each sport. This research provides a detailed picture of what is important to people when they participate in sport, and satisfaction with their sporting experience, across 46 sports. This is the second year of the study allowing for each sport to monitor their performance over the last 12 months. The development of this research has been informed by consultation with the national governing bodies of sport (NGBs), a literature review on previous studies in this area, scoping work undertaken by Ipsos MORI, and qualitative research by the Henley Centre. Prior to the survey being conducted, a full pilot and cognitive testing was also undertaken.

3. 3 Survey information The results for Boxing, for the three engagement levels: general participants, members of affiliated clubs and members of the talent pool. An overall satisfaction score, importance and satisfaction with each of the sporting domains, as well as a more detailed understanding of satisfaction within each domain. The importance results shown in this pack have been held at 2009 levels throughout. An overall satisfaction score for all sports combined (an aggregated score across all 46 sports). Comparative satisfaction scores from the 2009 study. In total 830 people (age 14 and over) from Boxing took part in the survey; 308 general participants, 461 affiliated club members and 61 talent pool members. The overall score for Boxing is weighted to reflect the number of people taking part in each of the engagement levels (general participants, club member, talent pool). This leads to an effective base size of 534 for statistical considerations. (See the information guide for more information on the weighting process). The score for all sports combined (an aggregated satisfaction score across all the 46 sports) is weighted to reflect the numbers of people taking part in each of the 46 sports. All satisfaction and importance scores exclude people who have said ‘Don’t know’ for that specific question. This will lead to a small fluctuation in sample sizes per question (usually less than 10%) This slide pack provides Data considerations Further information on the survey (rationale, methodology, weighting etc) can be found in the attached information guide.

14. 14 Identification of the factors that are most likely to drive satisfaction in Boxing based on statistical modelling of ‘derived importance’

15. 15 Derived importance The next slide places the domains in order of importance for boxing. The key drivers for each of the top 8 domains* are shown within the relevant section of the report. This is based on statistical modelling of all the responses to the survey and may differ from results presented in previous slides which focus on the importance as stated by respondents (stated importance). By taking into account the relationship between all the aspects of satisfaction, this analysis of ‘derived importance’ provides a more detailed and comprehensive analysis of the factors which will drive satisfaction. See the information guide for more detail on how and why this analysis is done. *The key drivers are shown for domains that have a high or medium impact on overall satisfaction.

17. 17 Strategic priority analysis – stated and derived importance The next chart maps the scores for each domain for stated and derived importance mapped against each other. This highlights which domains should be a strategic priority – with each of the domains falling into one of four quadrants: Drivers: There will likely be overlap between stated and derived importance factors – these are the ones which should be prioritised. Hidden opportunities: Those that are high on derived but low on stated importance are the hidden opportunities which could potentially have a large effect of overall satisfaction. Minimum requirements: Those that are high on stated importance and low on derived importance are the real hygiene factors Marginals: Those with low importance on both measures (stated and derived importance) can be seen as least important for driving action.
