I merely use that as an example because if we don't value the top guys in our sport, how can we expect the wider public to give two hoots?
A lot of the top brit guys do give their time free, training, judging, lending kit etc etc .... the mistake is taking it for grantedWink


No one is taking it for granted. You are writing on a forum full of people who care about the sport and do what they can to help. We have comp organisers, sponsors, exceptional lifers etc. No one is taking anything for granted.

Saying that £120-150 is too much is stating an opinion. For many on here thats a LOT of money. It doesnt mean we take anyone for granted or dont value the top athletes, it means that to some of us its a LOT of money.

If someone asks for market research then being honest is doing them the best service you can.

Great opinions on the training day, really constructive,
i just need some figures on ticket prices and how far people would travel to see 1. uk athletes (from the ticket sales to winter Giant's) people are willing to travel a good 3 hours, and pay £10. 2. how far would guy's travel to see International guy's like Zadrunus & Mariusz & what would you be prepared to pay, .... maybe how many hours you would want for your money...

As long as I could get there and back in a day, and my fellow training partners were accompanying me, I would travel anywhere in Eng/Wales/Scotland really

Price upto 20 beans for International athletes
