Matthew Perry has joined the TIU as Education and Training Manager, bringing with him experience gained from a background in teaching and elite sports anti-doping education. He will be responsible for managing and extending the scope and reach of anti-corruption training and education across the sport, which includes a mandatory online training module which has been completed by over 30,000 players, officials and administrators.
A new TIU App is now available for Apple and Android smartphones. Produced in six languages, it gives direct access to the player education program through the WTA and ATP Player zones and ITF IPIN accounts. Anti-corruption rules and tips are also included.
The Independent Review Panel set up by the governing bodies of tennis to review all aspects of the sport’s anti-corruption protocols, structures and resources, has launched a website at www.tennisirp.com. An Interim Report will be published and made public, followed by a period of consultation. A Final Report will follow when that consultation process has been completed. The Panel can be contacted via the website and at Tennis.IRP@crsblaw.com
