This year’s Wimbledon Ballot – Monday 2nd May

If you are interested in entering the ballot for Wimbledon Tickets then please read this post carefully. We have been allocated 32 pairs of tickets this year.

The important details are:

A ballot for the tickets will be held at the Club at 4.30pm, Monday, 2nd May (Bank Holiday). (note: winners of the ballot have to pay for the tickets). There will also be an American Tournament, open to all members, run during the afternoon – more details to follow on this.

You will be eligible for the draw if:

(A) You are already a British Tennis (BT) Member (BTM) and:

  • You opted in to the LTA ballot before the 19th February this year and
  • You pay your Highgate Club membership subscription for 2016 by Tuesday April 26th.

If you did not opt into the ballot by 19th February you will not be eligible for this years ballot.

A list of opted in BTMs is available from the following link. Eligible subject to Membership, Non-Eligible

If you have opted in to the ballot and now do not want to be included please let Julia Faherty know by emailing Julia.faherty1@gmail.com

(B) Not yet a British Tennis Member

  • Become a member of British Tennis by 30th April. You can do this from the following link (www.lta.org.uk/Members/Join/)
  • Link to Highgate as you venue
  • Opt into the LTA Ballot
  • Pay your Highgate Club membership subscription for 2016 by Tues. April 26th.

Successful ballot winners will choose their tickets at the ballot on 2nd May. If you are not going to be at the ballot you need to send an email to Julia Faherty – Julia.faherty1@gmail.com with your ticket selection, in order of preference.

Once tickets have been purchased they cannot be transferred. Ballot winners must use the tickets for themselves with a guest. The guest can be of the successful member’s choosing and does not have to be a BTM, or a member of Highgate, although we would prefer that the opportunity is given to club members wherever possible.

  • When ballot winners have selected their tickets you will be entered onto the BT web site and you will receive an e-mail from BT asking you to pay directly to BT by the 16th May. Tickets will be sent directly to you by BT.
