"As long ago as 1924, the Club introduced a public ballot whereby the majority of Centre, No.1 and No.2 Court tickets are sold in advance.
The Public Ballot has always been substantially oversubscribed.
Entry into the Ballot does not automatically entitle applicants to tickets for Wimbledon, but a place in the draw for a pair of tickets.
Successful applicants are selected at random by computer. It is
not possible to request tickets for specific days or courts, as the
day and court offered are chosen randomly by a computerised selection process."
"To enter the draw for 2009 ballot you must first obtain an application form from 1st August 2008. (Requests postmarked after 15th December 2008 will NOT be processed.) Completed forms must be returned no later than 31st December 2008.
Please send a self-addressed, stamped envelope DL size (110mm x 220mm, 4 1/4 " x 8 5/8") - to:
Ticket Office
AELTC
P.O. BOX 98
London SW19 5AE
Only ONE application per household is permitted. Please do not ask for more than one form: we will void your applications".
Wimbledon 2009: Monday 22 June - Sunday 5 July
