Join the Action as a Line Umpire!
Are you ready to take your love for tennis courtside?
As a Line Umpire, you’ll play a pivotal role in the game, making crucial “in or out” calls and ensuring matches are played fairly and by the rules.
Feel the thrill of being on the court, just steps away from world-class players, immersed in the excitement of every serve, volley, and rally. It’s more than a job—it’s a front-row seat to the action, where you become an integral part of the match’s energy and rhythm.
No experience? No problem! If you’re passionate, focused, and ready for a unique challenge, we want to hear from you. Join our team of line officials and take your place in the heart of the game.
Be the decision-maker. Be a Line Umpire.
Take the Best Seat in Tennis as a Chair Umpire!
Step into the spotlight and lead the game as a Chair Umpire, the ultimate authority on court. From overseeing every serve to ensuring fair play, you’ll be the one keeping the match on track, applying the rules, and making decisions that shape the outcome.
This role isn’t just about officiating—it’s about staying cool under pressure, working closely with players, and handling unexpected challenges with confidence and precision. You’re not just watching the action; you’re steering it.
If you’re decisive, composed, and ready to make your mark in the world of tennis, we want you in the chair! Join us and experience the excitement, responsibility, and pride of being at the centre of the game.
Be the decision-maker. Be a Chair Umpire.
