Umpires
There are 330 umpires (chair umpires and line umpires) officiating
at The Championships. Around 60 of these officials are from overseas
and the remaining 270 umpires are members of the Association
of British Tennis Officials (ABTO).
If you would like to train to become an official, please contact
LTA Officiating
National Tennis Centre
100 Priory Lane
Roehampton
London SW15 5JQ
or email: officiating@LTA.org.uk
Please note that LTA Officiating do not recruit umpires specifically
for The Championships. Significant training and experience working
at other events is essential before umpires can be considered to
officiate at The Championships.
PLEASE NOTE: Many people apply
to several organisations for tournament work, which is quite understandable.
However, if you accept a job with one organisation but then decide
to accept a position, for whatever reason, with another, it would
be greatly appreciated by all concerned if you would let all relevant
parties know of your plans. It causes a great deal of unnecessary
extra work, especially close to the start of the event, for organisations
who suddenly find they do not have the full complement of staff
they thought they had recruited. |
