Latest COVID-19 news from LTA

Very important for members to follow the following guidelines set out by the LTA so that everybody can play Tennis and feel comfortable whilst on court.

We have made a change to the booking system so that the person booking the court must enter the other players details on the actual booking so as a club we adhere to the LTA guidance and keep this information for 21 days .

PRE-ATTENDANCE SYMPTOM CHECK [NEW]

Anyone attending a venue (including players, coaches, staff and any other visitors), should undergo a pre-attendance self-assessment for any COVID19 symptoms using the information on the NHS website before leaving home.

No-one should leave home to participate in tennis if they, or someone they live with, has symptoms of COVID -19, currently recognised as any of the following: - A high temperature - A new, continuous cough - A loss of, or change to, their sense of smell or taste

Should an individual have demonstrated any such symptoms, they must follow NHS and PHE guidance on self-isolation

NHS TEST & TRACE

If someone who has played at your venue develops symptoms of COVID-19, they should be directed to follow the Government’s ‘test and trace’ guidelines, which can be read on the Gov.uk website

[NEW] To support NHS Test and Trace, venues should keep a temporary record of all those on site for 21 days, in a way that is manageable, and assist NHS Test and Trace with requests for that data if needed. This should also include keeping a temporary record of staff shift patterns for your venue for 21 days
