vii. Conduct in General – Players and Player Support Team Members shall not conduct himself or herself in a manner that will reflect unfavourably on the ITF, any tournament, event or circuit owned or sanctioned by the ITF (the “ITF Tournaments”), any player, official or the game of tennis. viii. Credentialed Persons – No person who has been given a credential by a Tournament, including members of the media, may at any time during the Tournament engage in abusive conduct directed towards any player, official, spectator or Tournament or ITF staff. b. Violations/Procedures i. Any individual who believes that any player or Player Support Team Member has failed to meet his or her obligations under this Welfare Policy may file a written complaint with the ITF Executive Director responsible for the ITF Tournament in which the complainant participates. That complaint shall be signed and shall state specifically the nature of the alleged misconduct. Upon receipt of such a signed complaint, the ITF Executive Director shall promptly initiate a review of the matter. The ITF Executive Director may also initiate an investigation on the basis of a suspension or other disciplinary action taken against a player or Player Support Team Members by a National Federation or other tennis organisation or a conviction or plea of guilty or no contest to a criminal charge or indictment as set out in Section v. above. ii. Upon review of the complaint and, where appropriate, additional investigation, the ITF Executive Director may determine that the complaint does not merit further action. If the ITF Executive Director determines that the complaint does merit further action, after giving the accused individual the opportunity to present his or her views to the ITF Executive Director or his/her designee, either in person or in writing, at the ITF Executive Director’s discretion, the ITF Executive Director may impose appropriate sanctions including (a) denial of privileges or exclusion of the person in question from any or all ITF Tournaments, or (b) such other sanctions including monetary sanctions as the ITF Executive Director may deem appropriate. In addition, the ITF Executive Director shall have authority to issue a provisional suspension, pending the completion of the investigation and issuance of a final decision on the matter. iii. Decisions of the ITF Executive Director may be appealed to the Committee responsible for the ITF Tournament in which the complainant participates, unless such decision involves the imposition of a suspension greater than one (1) year or a fine in excess of US$5,000, in which case the appeal of such ITF Executive Director decision shall be made to the Board of Directors of the ITF. In either circumstance, the appellate body shall decide whether to review the appeal based solely on the ITF Executive Director’s investigation or whether to hold a full hearing in which the accused player or Player Support Team Member will be given the opportunity to present his/her views 120
directly to the appellate body, in which case the appellate body shall issue directions for the efficient conduct of the appeal. iv. Any decision of the Executive Director and/or the Committee pursuant to this Welfare Policy may be communicated to those Member National Associations and ITF Tournament organisers deemed necessary by the Executive Director and/or the Committee. 121
