Neutrality
In order to participate at ITF World Tennis Tour Juniors tournaments (and/or ITF World Tennis Masters Tour, Wheelchair, World Tennis Tour and Beach events) in Great Britain in 2026, Russian and Belarusian nationals will need to sign and submit a Neutrality Declaration to the LTA before the Entry Deadline for the event they wish to play in. Failure to sign and submit the declaration to the LTA by the deadline will see a player removed from the relevant Entry List.
Once a player has signed this updated declaration and submitted to the LTA, they will be covered for all other ITF sanctioned events in Great Britain in 2026. However, the ITF/LTA may require a player to re-sign the Declaration at any time if changes are made to its conditions.
Purpose
The purpose of the declaration is to ensure that players and relevant Player Support Team (PST) members (who will also need to sign a Neutrality Declaration if they are Russian or Belarusian nationals) do not use their participation in sporting events to support or promote the Russian and Belarusian regimes.
