You don’t have to just take our word for it. Here’s what our staff have to say about working at the ITIA

  • HELEN CALTON

    INVESTIGATIONS


    As one of the investigators at the ITIA, I conduct investigations of potential breaches of tennis’ integrity rules.

    As a former police officer, joining the ITIA has enabled me to further my career, but within a sport I am passionate about. 

    I love to keep active and spend my time at CrossFit, swimming or playing tennis – the latter of which with lots of enthusiasm but a little less talent!

    To me, integrity is about doing the right thing even when no one is watching you. This might not always give you the advantage, but it is fair and proper, allowing for an even playing field.

  • GLEN SHACKEL

    INTELLIGENCE


    I grew up in Wimbledon Park and could hear the cheer of the Centre Court crowds from my back garden, so I have always had an interest in tennis and would keep an eye out for whenever an analyst vacancy came up.

    Having previously worked at the Metropolitan and Surrey Police as a crime intelligence analyst, I provide analysis in support of investigations into corruption and doping offences in international tennis – this includes the analysis of a wide range of sources to assist in cases and identify further attempts to manipulate the result of matches.

    For me integrity means to build trust and respect.  Integrity contributes to professional success, promotes moral responsibility, sets a positive example, and boosts self-respect. In terms of tennis, integrity allows people to aspire to achievements and success based on hard and fair effort.

  • DANIEL COLE

    COMMUNICATIONS


    My role includes providing updates for the tennis stakeholders and general public on the work we undertake at the ITIA, including quarterly reports, press releases on sanctions, and liaising with media.

    An important part of my role is supporting the ITIA’s work in prioritising prevention of integrity issues before they occur. 

    This includes developing resources for tennis officials, players, and their support staff to ensure that they understand the rules.

    To me, integrity is about putting the principles of fair play and equality of opportunity above individual interests – no matter the personal or professional implications.

  • JOSH COAKES

    ANTI-DOPING


    As the Anti-Doping Officer here at the ITIA, I contribute to the running of the Tennis Anti-Doping Programme (TADP). This includes educating players on the rules, liaising with stakeholders, overseeing testing, and managing the Whereabouts programme.

    A big part of my role is the engagement with the players and their support team members to help develop their understanding of the TADP rules and bridge the gap between the rules and the people that they affect. This is usually in the form of one-to-one meetings or seminars at tournaments.

    I believe that integrity is the foundation on which sport thrives. Sport can help exercise integrity and provide the platform to demonstrate the importance of integrity to the rest of society.
