Low Petanque turnout
PNZ received 20 replies to their request for selection process feedback from the NZ Petanque membership (some are published here). Considering we have 60 players on the national selection list and at least 1200 affiliated members this is a disappointing result. It can't be easy for PNZ to formulate policies and get it right, if people are not showing any interest. It's no good moaning if we are not prepared to provide input. Twenty replies with 6 of these from players not on the selection list. This leaves only 14 replies from the 60 players that had put their name forward for selection. PNZ no doubt will be looking for some kind of mandate to make changes, but with only 20 replies this is going to be difficult.

Looks like you'll need to implement some sort of incentive policy.
Perhaps feedback can be collected at a largely attended event where one of the feedback forms (the content can still be anonymous) wins a prize.
From time to time you may find that links from this Blog to the PNZ web pages do not work. The PNZ webmaster is forever changing URLs, and I am having quite a time keeping up with it all.
Yes, Jeppy is right - we may have to "implement some sort of incentive policy". I does seem sad to me that in this day and age, people will only participate if some sort of reward is offered.
