Southwark Council tennis coaching
Southwark Council has put safeguards in place for coaching in parks so that people can participate safely and are not exposed to people that are unqualified, uninsured, or generally unsuitable. This is enabled by a coaching contract with organisations that have policies scrutinised to ensure good governance - meaning coaches with up to date qualifications, safety assessments for the activity, fees and charges that are publicly available, and are answerable to the Council for the quality of service. This approach is in line with the Lawn Tennis Association and consistent with other London Boroughs.
There is no coaching allowed on park courts not provided by our coach contractors. People that are working as a coach without permission are contravening the Council park byelaws (part 7, paragraph 31) and can be removed from the grounds and be liable to pay a fine as stated in paragraph 38.
Unauthorised coaching breaks the booker / users terms of use, and if the court booker (whether the coach or the coachee) continues after having received a warning, they will find their account and payments blocked or deleted on Clubspark for a period of 6 months.
