About us Play & Compete Major Events Workforce & Venues search Join Login Safeguarding Standards for LTA Venue Registration Making tennis safe and open to all From 1 October 2019, all LTA Registered Venues will be required to meet six safeguarding standards as part of their LTA Venue Registration. These standards apply to all venues but please see the Venue Registration portal for details of exact requirements for your venue type. This is a positive move and one which will help support venues in creating a safe, accessible, enjoyable and welcoming environment for everyone. What's in it for my venue? Knowledge that your venue is playing its part in making our sport a safe, secure, accessible and welcoming environment for all. Confidence that you're meeting duty of care obligations for those playing, socialising, working or volunteering at your venue. Exclusive benefits – including access to the LTA Wimbledon Ballot; ClubSpark; Public Liability Insurance; and LTA funding support, programmes and initiatives. Support and Guidance We will be conducting safeguarding support visits with venues on an ongoing basis in order to support Registered Venues in ensuring the new safeguarding standards are being maintained. Failure to comply with the standards can lead to the withdrawal of a venue's registration and its benefits. Details about the standards and how you can achieve them can be found below.
