Our Values

Six values shape how we hope people experience tennis with us — on court, around it, and in the way the association is run.

What guides us

  • Respect

    Good sportsmanship, courteous behaviour, and consideration for every person involved.

  • Inclusion

    Welcoming people of different backgrounds, abilities, ages, and experiences.

  • Participation

    Valuing the act of taking part as much as the result.

  • Development

    Patience, curiosity, and steady personal improvement.

  • Wellbeing

    Physical activity, social interaction, and balanced recreation.

  • Community

    Cooperation, shared experiences, and lasting relationships.

Values in practice

Values matter only when they show in everyday behaviour: greeting a newcomer, calling lines honestly, thanking volunteers, and handling disagreements calmly. Our Code of Conduct describes these expectations in more detail.
