: A patient representative, who has experienced pelvic floor dysfunction and its impact on her sport, was involved as a member of the study steering group from its inception and took an equal part in all aspects of design of the survey, study protocol and decisions regarding advertising and analysis. She will continue to be involved as a member of the steering group to decide on potential ways to disseminate the results to the public going forward. Further, local women were recruited to pilot initial versions of the survey to identify any issues with wording and content. The final version was modified based on their feedback.
