As a member of an LTA-accredited tennis club, like Bath Tennis, you are eligible to apply for tickets to Wimbledon, the Championships, through 2 ballots: the public ballot and the LTA Advantage ballot for club members. Please note that Bath Tennis no longer directly receives tickets to distribute to members and all Wimbledon tickets must be applied for on the LTA website.

The Public Ballot (for everyone)

The public ballot opens late September and everyone is eligible to enter. You must be a member of MyWimbledon and have ‘tickets and ballots’ ticked in preferences to receive notifications of the ballot. You can join and check your preferences here.

Note: Your MyWimbledon account is completely separate to your LTA account. Your MyWimbledon username will be your email address.

Please visit the Wimbledon public ballot information page to sign up for tickets once the ballot is open.

The LTA Advantage Ballot (for club members)

Members of an LTA-registered tennis club, like Bath Tennis, are eligible for both the public ballot and the LTA Advantage ballot. To be in with a chance to win Wimbledon tickets from this ballot too, you must manually opt in by the deadline each year, which normally falls in mid-January.

If you have a registered LTA Advantage account, you should receive an email telling you if you’re eligible and when to apply. You should also be given a link you can follow to easily opt in. Please be careful when opening emails from unknown senders.

If your LTA account is not setup to receive notifications about the LTA Advantage ballot, go to the LTA website, login to ‘Advantage Home’, go to ‘MyBenefits’ (on the left of the page), and click on the ‘LTA Wimbledon Ballot’ benefit. This benefit will not show until the opt in period has started. You must login with the same username and password to opt in for the LTA Advantage Ballot as you use with Bath Tennis for ClubSpark to be eligible.

For you to see this benefit, you must make sure that you are affiliated to an LTA-registered tennis club, such as Bath Tennis. To check, please go to the LTA website, login to ‘Advantage Home’, and go to ‘Managing Your Affiliated Venues’. From here, you can then link to Bath Tennis Club.

The LTA Advantage ballot is only available to players with an LTA account upgraded to Play+. It’s free to upgrade to Play+ and you may need to scroll to the right to find the Play+ option.
