ITF Beach Tennis Tour Tournament Organisational Guidelines 2015 Page 12 of 19 If the changing rooms/facilities do not have toilets and/or showers, these must be made available elsewhere in close proximity to the courts. 7. Treatment and Fitness Room A separate treatment and fitness room should be made available, preferably located near the courts. Alternatively a partitioned area (for privacy reasons) adjacent to the changing rooms may be suitable provided this is equipped with a wash hand basin and is well ventilated and of a suitable temperature. 8. Security / Accreditation Many of the above areas should be designated "Player access only", into which only entered players, their nominated coaches and tournament officials may be allowed access. Such individuals should be issued with appropriate accreditation passes. Each tournament must provide sufficient personnel to ensure access to these areas is restricted as required. 9. Restaurant It is strongly recommended the Tournament Director allocates a nearby restaurant as an official restaurant for the duration of the tournament. The restaurant, which should be open throughout the day, must offer various types of food and drink suitable for athletes at a reasonable cost. If possible, the ITF recommends that the Tournament Director negotiates reduced food rates for players and tournament officials. The system by which players are to obtain food, i.e. vouchers, tickets, or cash, should be made known to the players before the start of the tournament. Please see Appendix A for a list of recommended foods and drinks. 10. Hotels/Accommodation Each tournament must appoint an official hotel/accommodation, which is of a suitable international standard, and negotiate reduced room rates for players. Details of alternative cheaper accommodation should also be provided. Official accommodation should be in close proximity to the Tournament site.
