Nationally, officiating is currently transitioning to a Tennis Australia Officiating Membership. For officials, this means you will deal directly with the Tennis Australia officiating department for all officiating needs – membership, uniforms, renewal of accreditation, tournament applications and appointments. This change will see the current structure of Tennis Officials Australia, QLD division cease to exist in an operational capacity. In the upcoming months, you will start to see officials wear a new national officiating uniform.

From 1 July, all accredited officials across Australia, must be a registered member of Tennis Australia Officiating if you wish to continue officiating. Additionally, current accredited officials will have been emailed last week their Open Book Test, Eye Test form for submission by  21 June. These reaccreditation requirements for all officials, link in with the new two-year membership. If you have any questions about the national officiating changes or the reaccreditation, please feel free to contact Tennis Australia’s Officiating Development Coordinator in QLD, Cheryl Jenkins.
