Analysis for SR

Player retention is critical

Most players leave during their first year of licence. Early engagement is key to long-term retention.

→ Improve onboarding experience for new members

Aging membership base

The player population is getting older, with insufficient junior recruitment to balance the age pyramid.

→ Strengthen junior recruitment programs

Negative net growth

More players are leaving than joining. The federation is losing members year over year.

→ Launch re-engagement campaigns for lapsed members

Free licences growing, paid declining

Paid licence numbers have been declining for four consecutive years while free licences increase. This impacts revenue sustainability.

→ Create incentives to convert free to paid licences

Tournament participation stable

Overall tournament participation remains consistent, but many players compete only occasionally.

→ Convert occasional participants into regular competitors

Low Mini/Fun Liga activity

Mini/Fun Liga participation rates remain low despite being an accessible competition format.

→ Simplify registration process and promote benefits

Long-tail tournament frequency

Most players attend only 1-2 tournaments per year, while a small core competes regularly.

→ Identify engagement tiers and incentivize repeat participation

Points concentrated at lower levels

Most ranking points are earned at lower competition levels, with limited progression to higher tiers.

→ Encourage participation in higher-level events

Low referee training rate

The overall proportion of trained referees remains insufficient to cover competition needs.

→ Focus on Level 1 certification to build referee base

Scoring app still confined to one tournament

Only a small share of matches produced a scoring payload, and referee feedback covers a fraction of those.

→ Extend the app to the competitions already scheduled before reading the coverage rate as a trend
