Current Chair Appointments Available
2nd February 2021

May I start by wishing you a Happy New Year, one in which we can look forward with positivity to the reopening of our clubs, meeting together for training and refreshing friendships.  It will be some months yet, but we are now on the road to recovery.

This pandemic has sadly brought so many deaths.  Words cannot adequately express commiserations for those who have experienced loss.  For all those who have passed, our tribute to them are our memories, acknowledging their legacy and our commitment, going forward, to live life to the full, never again taking for granted the time we share with those we care about, the things we enjoy, opportunities when they present themselves.

As the virus continues to spread, the hardship of illness, recovery and isolation is hitting many of us, further restricting our daily lives and impacting on our mental as well as physical wellbeing.  It is important that we reach out, when we need it, for emotional as well as practical support.  Please be assured that UK ITF Executive, Administration, Committees and Club Support will respond however we can.  It can be of benefit simply to talk to someone experiencing the same challenges, it doesn’t just have to be formal UK ITF business.

• Technical & Research vacant positions

Best Regards
Mandeep Rauli
