Conduct, safeguarding and inclusion

Duffield Lawn Tennis Club is a members' club and we welcome people from all sections of the community.

So that all our members have  a great experience when playing at the club, we expect everyone - adults, juniors, parents and coaches to abide by our policies and procedures. A full list of policies is available on the About Us page, while links to the key policies on conduct and safeguarding can be found below.

We expect all those who use the club to behave with courtesy towards each other. Social and competitive matches should be played in a friendly spirit - please see our Playing and Match Etiquette policy for more information. Coaching is supportive and intended to enable everyone to reach their potential. Abusive language and unacceptable behaviour in the Clubhouse or on the courts is not allowed. Such behaviour will result in disciplinary action.

Members are encouraged to be open at all times and to share any concerns or make a complaint through a coach, a council member or our Welfare Officer.
