Getting involved as a tennis volunteer can bring great rewards – it develops employability, can support your playing, help with your Duke of Edinburgh Award and lead to a long-term career in sport.
The LTA has a young volunteers pathway, which links into coaching and participation pathways.
At Sway LTC we can offer the volunteer Tennis Leaders course which is available for anyone from the age of 13 to 17. This is the first step to helping with coaching and competitions at the club. To register your interest in this course or with volunteering, speak to any of the coaching team. From the age of 16, players can undertake the Level 1 coaching course and/or an umpire course.
We have a number of under 16 juniors that volunteer with LTA Youth group coaching at the club who have achieved the Tennis Leaders course or will be completing at the next available course.
We are also happy to accept year 10 school work experience applications, with many current and past juniors taking on this role, and have two positions available every summer.
