The LTA Tennis Coach qualification requires the successful completion of the Coach Readiness Test, a Play Test Grade 1 or a previous best rating of 6.1 or higher, in order to book onto the qualification.
For more details on the Readiness Test please see here.
When you book the Coach Readiness Test you will access it through LTA Learn - further guidance will be available within the course itself including what to video and how to submit it.
If you have previously completed and passed a Play Test in preparation for a Level 3 course you will not be required to complete a Coach Readiness Test.
Booking a Readiness Test allows for ONE submission - if you receive a not yet pass mark you will be required to book another Readiness Test.
