    If you are willing to pay for tickets the best way to try and get hold of them is by entering the public ballot for tickets that takes place every year. I think from about August you can send off your form and the deadline is sometime about Dec for completed entries. It is a fair system as everyone is in for a chance! I managed to get hold of centre court tickets this year fro around £50.00 each so although not cheap you know you are paying face value! Good luck in the comps though!

    Thats what I've done past couple of years, not been lucky so far, you would think that the fact I was born in Wimbledon, I would have been before! :rolleyes:

    My sis went she was 14, (about 1979 I think), just queued up and managed to see John McEnroe and Martina and Chris Evert play. :D

    I am in love with Nadal so hands off. :D

    Hi guys, since looking on ebay i have found out that the only tickets that can be sold are debenture tickets, so bewaaaaaaaare of anything that isn't!!!!! You can see on ebay that the debenture tickets say so are all really expensive and then there are some really cheap ones which dont say which look fishy. Think is how even if they say they are the right tickets how do you know to trust it anyway?

  • A number of users of this forum have asked us how we are able to offer centre court Wimbledon tickets as a competition prize without contravening the strict ticket transfer rules operated by Wimbledon. In answer to all these questions, the prize tickets are debenture tickets which can be legally transferred and hence given as a prize.

    Thank you all for entering and good luck!!
