The Young Person's Welfare Ambassador programme application window is now open!
We are very excited to announce we are now open to applications until 30th November 2024.
YPWAs are young people aged 14-24 who play an important role in safeguarding at LTA registered venues.
This is the first time in British sport a National Governing Body (NGB) is actively involving young people in a programme of this nature, directly integrating them in the safeguarding and welfare work within tennis venues and supporting them to be an important part of the process.
Further information including how to apply can be found via www.lta.org.uk/ypwa
On the 21st November at 7pm, we will be running a Q&A session on Teams for counties, clubs, parents and young people who are thinking about becoming a YPWA. The session will be hosted by myself and Regional Safeguarding Officer, Hannah Knox. People can sign up here https://forms.office.com/e/TMaBj01nHt.
