Need your help to graduate on bike polo!

Hello fellow polo players,

We are two students who are both doing an assignment about bike polo and could really use your help.

I'm Erik, born and raised in Amsterdam and playing bike polo for about a year. I'm studying Industrial Design Engineering at the Technical University in Delft and currently doing my graduation project on bike polo (a dream come true) and more specifically the gear that is used while playing bike polo.

Hillary is an exchange student, originally from the US, studying Sociology at the University of Amsterdam. Her assignment is about the social side of bike polo.

As part of our assignments we set up a questionnaire with questions about both the social and technical side of bike polo. The answers we gather with the questionnaire will be used as the main source of information for both our assignments.

So if you have a couple of minutes, please fill in the questionnaire. We would be very grateful for your effort and will send you a copy of our findings, if you desire that. Thank you in advance.

3, 2, 1, Questionnaire!

Filled out, cheers!

I enjoyed filling out that survey, and that definitely counts for something because I normally dislike surveys. Good luck with the study! I included my email, send me more bike polo surveys if you make new ones!!!

And good luck with graduation...all college was for me personally was the most expensive party I ever went to!

Done.

Done! And looking forward to the results!

Thanks everybody who already filled it out, I was so happy to see how many already responded! Already a lot of interesting responses, especially on the "what do you like best about bike polo" question. There was one in particular I couldn't resist to already share with you guys:

Quote:

when someone tries to scoop it over my head and then i'm all BYAH and i intercept it mid-air with the shaft of my mallet. and then they get sad and their sadness fuels me.

This one made my day.

Also a lot of interesting remarks about the questionnaire itself (what could be different, questions to add etc). The idea is to make this questionnaire a periodic thing to get an idea about how polo progresses over time, so all your remarks can be integrated in a next version. Of course all the results will be shared with anybody interested in them!

Thanks again already for the quick responses, don't hesitate to spread the word to fellow players!

Done!

*Somebody please think of the children!!*

A quick update for everybody interested in the first results of the questionnaire. I uploaded a pdf with the prelimenary results of the questionnaire since we hit 100 participants today. I was really surprised to see so many responded in only 24 hours, but of course it was to be expected with the close polo community :)

The file can be found here

That results link isn't working.. or is it just my browser? anyone else?.
