And what training is involved?

One step at a time, you will be trained from scratch on how to become the best Tennis Official you want to be. After initial training, you'll be encouraged to put into practice what you've learnt at Tournaments as often as you're available.

After your initial training, you will be able to branch out to become a Line Umpire or Court Supervisor (or both if you like). Once you're comfortable with that role, training for other roles will become available.
