(3) Under the LTA rules only a member who is a fully paid member of a Tennis Club may enter the ballot and
thus all applicants must have either (a) paid their subscriptions in full or (b) started a standing order by the
Closing Date of the 25th April 2012 and followed the procedures as described on their bill.
(4) The Closing Date for entry into the Ballot is Wednesday 24th April 2012.
(5) The applications for entry into the Ballot can be submitted by post or by email but must be with the club by
17:00 on the 24th of April. Entry into the ballot is an indication that if successful then you must make
immediate payment by Cheque, Cash or Bank Transfer on the draw night if you are successful.
(6) If there are not enough entries to cover the tickets available then after the Main Ballot a Second Ballot will
be held for all new applicants who attend on the night but have not submitted a ballot form in advance.
(7) If there are more applicants than tickets then the Club will endeavour to obtain more tickets by applying to
the Cheshire LTA for more tickets.
(8) The Ballot will be held in the Club Pavilion on Friday 26th April starting at 20.00 hours prompt.
(9) Applicants need to attend the Ballot night draw to win tickets or alternatively nominate a proxy in
advance to attend with the ability to pay for the tickets on their behalf.
(10)The winners will be required to pay for the tickets on the night of the draw by cheque, cash or immediate
bank transfer.
(11) The actual Ballot paper on the reverse side of this document provides a box for putting in the number of
your choice. There are 12 tickets available and you can prioritise your preference of choice by listing your top
preference as number 1 and descending to number 12. If you don`t want to go on certain days you can leave
the “choice” box empty.
(12) The draw will commence with number 1 preferences and if there is only one number 1 preference for a
particular ticket then that person will get the ticket. If there is more than one number 1 preference then
there will be a competitive ballot between the contestants and the winner will receive their ticket
application and drop out of the Ballot as each member can only have one ticket. The losers will go back into
the Ballot to compete for their lower preferences of tickets.
(13) Once all the number 1 preferences have been accounted for the Ballot will proceed to the number 2
preferences and this procedure will continue down the scale of preferences until all the tickets available
have been won.
(14) The actual Wimbledon Tickets will be delivered to the Club by hand and each winner will have to collect
their tickets personally and sign a Legal Document stating that they will abide by the conditions of sale and
will personally use the tickets themselves and attend the Tournament.
The Best of Luck to you all.
