Bath Rugby are making an effort to deliver the best communication via Social Media as possible, but at the same time we are always striving to improve.
We felt that it would be appropriate to recognise and explain more clearly how we use Social Media to interact with our fans, and at the same time hear your thoughts on how we might improve this strand of communication.
