In 2024 we will once again be running a series of disability tournaments. All of the tournaments will be held at an indoor venue. Some of our competitions require a number of volunteers. These are detailed below.
LTA Scottish Disability Tournaments:
LTA Learning Disability Regional Tournament on Saturday 31st August & Sunday 1st September – Newlands Tennis Club, Glasgow
LTA Visually Impaired Regional Tournament on Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th October – Newlands Tennis Club, Glasgow
The regional tournaments provide the opportunity for many athletes to participate in local competition. Those that play will range from beginner to advanced level and many require support on court to ensure their competitive experience is a positive one.
For the LTA Scottish Disability Tournaments there will be LTA Licensed Officials who will umpire all the matches but we are looking for enthusiastic volunteers aged 14 or over to help players on court.
Escort players on to the correct court
Assist players to be ready to serve or receive
Ensure that the court is clear of any tennis balls prior to the start of each point
Ensure players take a break at the change of ends and take on fluids when needed
Change the scoreboard at the change of ends
Escort players from the court after their match
General support to organisers
Volunteers will be required on the days of the tournament as follows:
LTA Scottish Tournaments - From 8.30am to 6.00pm Saturday and 8.30am to 4.00pm Sunday
Please note – times may be shorter depending on number of entries
Volunteers supporting the LTA Scottish Disability Tournaments will receive a free t-shirt and lunch and drinks each day.
Without the help of willing volunteers, many of the athletes would not be able to compete, so your support is vital for them. If you are able to volunteer your time at any of our tournaments, please complete the reply slip and return to the tournament organiser Lesley Whitehead by email Lesley.whitehead@ymail.com or by post – Hillside, 121 Skelmorlie Castle Road, Skelmorlie, Ayrshire, PA17 5AL by Sunday 30th June 2024.
I look forward to hearing from you
Many thanks
