Extreme Heat Policy

18/7/2022

 
Dear club reps
This morning, the met office has updated its severe weather warning, confirming that the Merseyside region is most likely to be highly impacted by rising temperatures from today (Sunday), peaking early next week.

Picture
As such, substantial changes to normal practices are advised to help mitigate the risk to serious health effects, which will not be not limited to those most vulnerable. 

The Liverpool & District Tennis Group League Committee strongly recommend fixtures are NOT played during the RED WARNING period and are rearranged following the Match Regulations in particular 4e. https://www.liverpooltennisgroup.com/match-regulations.html

During AMBER WARNING periods we recommend sensible precautions by taking into consideration co existing health or other physical factors eg age, medications etc. Rearrangements in AMBER WARNING periods must be communicated to the league committee confirming that BOTH team captains are in agreement. Please remember the Fair Play Charter and respect your opposition’s circumstances. 
Thank you. 

Any questions please do ask by contacting: Sue Critchley, chair match regulations sub committee 07872 149820
