LTA Extreme Heat Policy

The LTA take the safety and well being of players, spectators and officials extremely seriously.

The LTA has introduced an Extreme Heat Policy in addition to the Adverse Weather Policy to provide guidance to players and tournament officials during a heat wave.

This new policy is inline with those of the ITF, WTA and other leading federations.

Any wheelchair competitions should follow the ITF Wheelchair Circuit Regulations.

You will also find some top SunguardingSport tips provided by the Melanoma Fund that tennis players can follow on court in hot weather available on the LTA Website.

As ever should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact us, your Competition Development Partner or one of your fellow officials for further support and guidance.

We wish you a successful and safe summer!
