Play Sport? Have Your Say.

Are you aged 16 to 25 and involved in community sport? Or do you know a young person who is?

Western Districts Baseball Club is proud to support ROIDAware, a research project exploring the influences young people experience through sport, fitness culture and social media, including awareness of steroids and peptides and other performance and image enhancing drugs (PIEDs).

From performance expectations to appearance pressures, young athletes face a range of influences both on and off the field. This research aims to better understand those experiences.

Please complete the short survey and have your say! Your experiences and perspectives matter.

The insights gathered will help ensure support and information provided to clubs, like ours, reflects the real experiences of young people involved in sport today.

The survey is:

• Anonymous
• Online
• Takes around 10 minutes to complete
• Open to Queenslanders aged 16 to 25 involved in community sport

Parents, carers and supporters: If you know a young person aged 16 to 25 who plays sport, we’d appreciate you sharing this opportunity with them and encouraging them to participate.

ROIDAware is a partnership between the Alcohol and Drug Foundation, The University of Queensland and QuIVAA.
