We have rules for this ballot most of which are imposed
on us by the LTA. These rules are:
If you do NOT wish to enter the draw you must opt OUT of
the ballot when renewing your membership – either online
or by hard copy.
You need to have renewed your Tennis Club
membership by 1st April to qualify for the
ballot. Members
will be emailed with our allocated dates and prices and
a date when the draw will take place and this
information will be put on the notice board at the Club
well in advance of the ballot date.
1.
Only 'playing members' of the club who have rejoined by
1st April may enter the ballot and these
members must also be British Tennis Members (associated
with Hythe LTC) at the time of the ballot. Each
member will be required to provide their British Tennis
Membership Number if their name is drawn in the ballot.
Details on British Tennis Membership can be found at
http://www.lta.org.uk/britishtennismembership/
2.
Junior members are allowed to enter the ballot if they
are at least 9 years old, social members are not
eligible to enter. British Tennis have their own ballot
for their members who are not fully paid up members of
an affiliated Club.
3.
If there are multiple qualifying members of the club
within the same family, they are all allowed to enter
the ballot. However, if you are fortunate enough to draw
more than one pair of tickets, we ask that you only
accept those that you intend to use yourself.
4.
A social event at the Pavilion will be held for the draw
towards the end of April.
Those present for the draw must be able to pay
for their tickets on the night by either cheque or cash.
If you are not able to attend the Draw evening, you will
need to appoint a proxy to whom you have given all your
contact details (including your British Tennis
Membership Number) and your preferences for tickets so
that they may choose for you.
Those unable to attend will have 48 hours to pay,
or they give their proxy the means to pay for the
tickets on the night of the draw.
5.
If your name is drawn in the ballot, you will have a
choice of available dates from our allocation.
This information will already have been made
available to you either by e-mail or from the notice
board in the Pavilion so that a decision can be made
quickly on the night. It would be a good idea to bring
along your diary on the night!
6.
Any member not present on the evening of the draw and
having failed to ask another member to act as their
proxy, will forfeit their ticket should their name be
drawn.
7.
Our ticket allocation varies from year to year, but our
allocation is normally quite good giving all members a
reasonable chance of being lucky.
8.
All the allocated tickets are pairs in adjacent seats
and for all the main 'show' courts at
Wimbledon.
9.
You MUST NOT sell your tickets on to other people.
We have to provide the member's name and details to the
LTA and this information is logged against that ticket.
If these tickets are found to fall into other people's
hands, the club will be held responsible and future
Wimbledon
tickets for the club are likely to be suspended.
If you cannot use your tickets (even at the last
moment), please inform a committee member and the club
will endeavour to allocate them to another member.
We look forward to seeing you at the Wimbledon Draw
Evening, and good luck! in the ballot |
even higher so we need a
big team effort.
