Back to News Written on 19-Apr-2010 by wtscWIMBLEDON TICKET DRAW - DRAW NIGHT SUNDAY 25th APRIL @ 7PM
The Club receives an allocation of tickets for Wimbledon each year from the LTA that can be passed on to any club members who would like to buy them. I am pleased to say that as a result of the high uptake of British Tennis Memberships by our members, the club has a healthy allocation of tickets available for Wimbledon 2010.
Demand is of course still much higher than the number of tickets available so the Club operates a ballot and draw process to allocate the tickets to members who would like to go.
Please note the policy on ticket allocation below
• Any club members in the ballot or draw MUST be registered British Tennis Members
• The ballot and draw is open to all our club members who are registered British Tennis Members – this extends to all membership categories and to junior members age 9 and over.
The Club's policy this year for the allocation of Wimbledon tickets is as follows:
OPEN BALLOT
50% of the club allocation will be available through an open ballot process – there is no need to sign up for this ballot. Names will be drawn from our British Tennis Membership List and successful members will be contacted and offered a pair of tickets. If they do not want the tickets, they will then be offered to another member drawn from the ballot.
NOTE - tickets are not transferable - they must be used by the member that they have been allocated to. If you can't use them, please return them to be redrawn.
CLUB DRAW NIGHT
The remaining 50% of the club allocation will be drawn on the "club draw night". This year's draw is on Sunday 25th April at 7PM. Again, fully paid up club members who are also registered British Tennis Members are eligible to take part in this draw. If you are not able to attend on this evening, you are able to ask another member to represent you. Note the draw night which is normally held in May has been brought forward this year to April as required by the LTA.
Please note that members who are successful in the first "open ballot" will not be eligible for the draw night ballot

......So as long as you are a fully paid up club member (if your membership is due for renewal on 1st April, you must have renewed by 15 April to qualify for the ballot /draw) and are a registered British Tennis Member, your name will be included in the ballot and you can attend the draw. Check the list by clicking on the PDF file – this is the most recent list of names provided by the LTA of Winchester Tennis and Squash Club registered British Tennis Members.
Winchester British Tennis Members
NOT on the list? It is not too late.... You can register as a British Tennis Member for free at
http://www.lta.org.uk/BritishTennisMembership/
Think that you should be on the list? – maybe you are registered as a British Tennis Member through another club – you can register more than one club on your British Tennis membership profile, just log on to the LTA website and update your profile. (let us know though as you may not be showing on our list for the draw)
