The LTA has allocated 20 pairs of tickets to the club for The Wimbledon Championships 2014.
This year we are trialling a new way of running the ballot. It will take place on the first Sunday (April 6th) of the Opening Season Tournament at 12 noon and we would encourage ALL those who want to be included in the draw to come along at this time. This way, if you are first out of the draw and want tickets for the men's final, you will get them ! Alternatively, if your first choice is Day One Centre Court you will get those. The previous system did not allow this to happen.
If you are planning to come to the draw - please e mail sleste1@yahoo.co.uk and let me know that is the case. You don't need to indicate your choices in advance to me - although you may want to do this in case of last minute problems attending. But I would strongly recommend you check your Wimbledon choices in advance/any dates you can't attend as you only have a short time on the day to decide which tickets you want. If you can't attend the draw you must either fill in the sheet at the club of the notice board or this sign-up form and e mail it to me by 9pm Saturday 5th April.
Full details of the draw are here. This way of running a ballot has been used successfully by another local club so we hope it will work well for Oadby.
We would emphasise that if you can't come along to the draw and your name is drawn out, you will still get tickets provided some of your chosen dates/court choices are still available. This is the same as with the previous system.
Please get in touch if you have any questions. Withers are also at the club on the day of the ballot so, apart from the tournament and the ballot, another good reason to come down to the club.
Best wishes
