New Research Shows Water Sports Participation Is on the Rise

 
According to new research released today (15 April 2019), more people are participating in water sports, a trend that has continued for the past three years.

The annual Water Sports Participation Survey showed that approximately 3.9m UK adults took part in one or more of 12 core boating activities¹ in 2018.  The overall activity rise of around 1.1% on the previous year, is thanks in part to 2018 being the UK’s joint hottest summer on record.

This equates to a volume increase of 700,000 people, with the highest participation rates for any activity coming from family groups. The number of young people and women also increased significantly in 2018.
