Selection
Devon Tennis have carried out a review of our adult and senior teams and the selection process for the teams.
We want to introduce a more open, transparent and inclusive selection policy with objective criteria for selection rather than based on subjective factors that can be influenced by personal feelings and prejudices.
These changes do not mean wholesale changes in what we are currently doing but more of a refinement and improvement on the current process. For example, we will now record all of the results in the match play sections of our team practices which will form one of the tools to help with the final selection of the team.
We want anyone in the County who wishes to, to be able to put themselves forward for selection knowing that they will be considered fairly and objectively.
