Tournament Sport Physician Required for Tennis

The tournament runs from Monday 10th to Sunday 16th June inclusive but the Sports Physician will be required for the Qualifying as well (Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th June) and to be on site from 1300hrs on Friday 6th June onwards.
Preference will be given to applicants who are based locally but some travel expenses, and accommodation on site, are available if necessary.
This is a WTA (Women’s Tennis Association) event for female international tennis players who are playing on the world tour and the sports physician will only be responsible for the players (there is a separate Crown Doctor employed for this event). The main draw players will be ranked within the world’s top 100, and the event is one of only 54 WTA tournaments staged across the globe.
Applicants must have a post-graduate qualification in Sport and Exercise Medicine and be Fellows or Members of the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine
Applicants must carry appropriate malpractice insurance with Third Party Cover. The Medical Defence Union (MDU) now excludes Third Party Cover from all their policies and this is not acceptable for International events run in association with the LTA. Sports Physicians who are insured by the MDU will not be considered for this post.
Applicants should contact Dr Michael Turner, the LTA Chief Medical Adviser, and forward a current CV and a copy of their current Malpractice Insurance Certificate to –
Michael.Turner@LTA.org.uk
Details of remuneration, accommodation and travel will be available at that stage.
