BOSTON, MA – To ensure IHRSA maintains the most up-to-date research on the global fitness club industry, IHRSA, the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association, has launched the 2017 Global Report Survey. Industry leaders who participate in the survey will be recognized among global leaders in the “Company Profiles” section of The IHRSA Global Report, IHRSA’s most requested research publication.

“As the most up-to-date publication on the club industry worldwide, The IHRSA Global Report not only raises the visibility of top performers, but also gauges industry performance in key markets,” said Jay Ablondi, IHRSA’s executive vice president of global products. “A perennial #1 selling industry resource, the IHRSA Global Report report is the first point of reference for anyone interested in learning more about the industry, and a must-have resource for club operators, developers, investors, researchers, and media.”

IHRSA member clubs who participate in the survey will receive a free PDF of The 2017 IHRSA Global Report before its release in June. Survey responses from clubs who complete the full survey will also be considered for Club Business International magazine’s “IHRSA Global 25,” a compilation of leading clubs in revenue, membership, and club units. The 2017 Global 25 listing will also be highlighted on the new IHRSA Exclusive Member Content app available on all mobile devices.

The survey gathers basic company contact information as well as revenue, membership, and club count figures. Health club operators can participate in the survey by visiting ihrsa.org/research.

The deadline for participating is Friday, February 17

In addition to the “Company Profiles” section, the report consists of the following:

  • Industry Overview: a comprehensive feature on health club market news and developments of the previous year, including input from industry leaders from independent clubs, large club chains, club associations, and federations.
  • Industry Research: topline statistics on more than 60 markets in the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.
  • Supplier Profiles: a valuable compilation of industry suppliers, which provides clubs with useful information about industry-leading products and services.

For stakeholders interested in last year’s report, The 2016 IHRSA Global Report is available as a PDF at ihrsa.org/ihrsa-global-report.
