LTA Pledgeball League is back for 2024

Our partnership with Pledgeball, the research-backed charity dedicated to rallying the sports community to tackle climate change, is back for 2024.

The climate crisis and changes to the environment are impacting tennis at all levels, and it's up to everyone in the sport to play their part to secure a lasting future for tennis in Britain.

In 2023, thousands of pro-environmental pledges were made by people at tennis venues across Britain to make small changes in their lives – taking shorter showers, using reusable water bottles, and taking public transport to name a few – to collectively make a big difference to tennis’ impact on the environment.

This year, we are aiming for even more tennis players at LTA registered venues to submit pledges on behalf of their venue via the Pledgeball website.

Four rounds will run from June to September, giving you even more opportunities to pledge and make a difference.

If your venue comes out on top in any of the league’s four rounds, they will receive a £500 grant from the LTA to be used for a sustainability project on-site. This could be to support installing court-side water fountains, a bike rack or energy efficient lighting - anything that helps make your venue greener!

Not only that, but everyone who makes a pledge will be entered into the draw to win a pair of tickets to the WTA 500 event held at The Queen’s Club in 2025!

Check back here at the end of each round of the league to find out who’s come out on top:

  • Round 1: 1-30 June
  • Round 2: 1-31 July
  • Round 3: 1-31 August
  • Round 4: 1-30 September
