WELCOME
WELCOME
On behalf of the All England Club may I wish
you a very warm welcome to Wimbledon 2016.
If you came to The Championships last year,
you may remember that I explained why the
dates of Wimbledon had been changed by
moving back one week in 2015. To recap and
for anyone reading this for the first time, we
and others had believed for a number of years
that the best interests of the players and
the sport as a whole would be served by having an extra week
between Wimbledon and Roland Garros, two of the four Grand
Slams which form the major pillars of the professional game.
I am delighted to report that the revised calendar was an
unqualified success. All the pre-Wimbledon tournaments had
exceptionally strong player fields and most observers felt
the standard of play during the first couple of days of The
Championships was noticeably higher. Doubtless the good
weather during practice week helped but a three week circuit
prior to our Championships was unquestionably very popular
with the players and they felt comfortable going into what
for many are their biggest matches of the year and on what is
arguably the biggest stage.
Next year, we will have begun the serious work of making
substantial improvements to No.1 Court, the most obvious
element being that there will be no roof at all for 2017, and you
will be able to follow the progress at www.wimbledon.com/
masterplan.
Before then, of course, there is the small matter of this year’s
Championships, the 130th. It promises to be another enthralling
event and I very much hope you have an enjoyable and
memorable visit to Wimbledon.

SAFETY & COMFORT
EMERGENCY
We hope that everyone who visits The Championships will have
a memorable and enjoyable experience.
If you discover an accident, fire or suspect package etc, then:
• Contact a member of staff or steward/guard immediately, or:
The Championships’ Grounds cover more than 40 acres and
are built on land which is not totally level. Therefore we ask you
to take care and to consider your own and others’ safety and
comfort by heeding the following:
• Give your name, the nature of the incident and the location.
• Wear appropriate footwear (flip flops and high heels are
not recommended)
The relevant emergency service(s) will be despatched
immediately.
• Come prepared for all weather conditions, whether hot or
cold, wet or dry
EVACUATION
• Do not leave items unattended at any time
• Please avoid packing any of the ‘Prohibited Items’ illustrated
on page 80 – they will not be allowed into the Grounds
• Allow good time to reach your seat or destination within the
Grounds – do not rush through crowded areas
• Take care when negotiating stairways inside and outside the
stadia. In common with most other sports and entertainment
venues, there are no supporting rails in tiered sections of
the stands.
• Call ext. 2666 direct from a red emergency telephone or
020 8971 2666 from an external line
If you are asked to evacuate a court or the Grounds, please
leave by the nearest suitable exit or as directed by uniformed
stewarding staff, taking all your personal belongings with you.
Please note that, in order to ensure the effectiveness of any
emergency evacuation, the AELTC regrets that spectators using
wheelchairs are only permitted access to designated areas
within the stands.
Visitors with special dietary requirements are advised that
they should bring with them what they need to eat and drink
throughout the day. However, a selection of gluten-free products
are available in the Aorangi Food Court, the Conservatory
Kitchen, and Café Pergola.
For further ticket information (not ticket sales), or if you have
limited mobility and would like further information concerning
provision for our wheelchair users and ambulant disabled
customers, please call the Ticket Office on 020 8971 2473.

SECURITY & LEFT LUGGAGE
ADVICE TO SPECTATORS
Our desire to protect the safety and security of all our visitors
means that comprehensive security measures will be in place for
all those visiting The Championships; these will include extensive
searches on entry to the Grounds and the Show Courts. Please
note the restriction, which will be enforced, on the number and
size of bags which may be brought into the Grounds.
DO’S & DON’TS
There will be no general left luggage facilities inside the Grounds.
However, debenture holders will be able to leave small items in the
debenture holders’ cloakrooms along with coats and umbrellas.
In the interest of security, AELTC reserves the right to search bags,
vehicles and the person as a condition of entry to the Grounds.
One bag only per person will be allowed and this bag must
measure no more than 40cm x 30cm x 30cm (16” x 12” x 12”).
Further, no hard-sided items (e.g. picnic hampers, coolboxes,
briefcases, flasks and camping chairs) of any size will be allowed
into the Grounds.
All bags will be searched:
• On entry to the Grounds.
• At the entrances to Show Courts.
• Before acceptance at left luggage facilities.
• Please see page 82 for full conditions of entry to the Grounds.
Please note: Speed of entry is decreased dramatically when
multi-pocketed bags/backpacks are presented. If you have to
bring a regulation size bag, as noted above, or one smaller, please
choose a single compartment bag.
DO
• Leave prohibited items at Left Luggage.
• Leave plenty of time to reach your destination – either getting
into the Grounds or when moving within the Grounds.
• Switch off mobile telephones, tablets and other communication
devices in the stands and around the courts.
• Hand in or offer your ticket for scanning, for resale on behalf of
charity, as you leave the Grounds.
DO NOT
• Buy tickets from touts (Schwarzhändler, Bacarinagios, Scalpers,
ダフ屋), they will not gain you entry. Tickets are checked at all
entry gates.
• Enter or leave the stands except at a change of ends and NOT
during a tie-break.
• Make a noise during a rally.
• Applaud a net cord or double fault.
• Use flash photography from the stands – automatic flashlights
must be suppressed.
• Bring babes in arms or children under 5 into any Show Court.
• Smoke within the stands of any court or in any enclosed space,
including on debenture balconies.
• Take glass or uncovered drinks containers, hot or strong
smelling food onto the Show Courts.
• Leave items unattended at any time – they will be removed.
Left luggage facilities are provided outside the Grounds for items
exceeding these criteria. These facilities are shown on the map on
pages 2 & 3.
Every effort will be made to speed your progress through
the search procedures; however, this process depends on the
requirements of the Metropolitan Police.
You are strongly advised to arrive as early as possible. We know
that these procedures may be inconvenient but we are sure that
you will understand the need to protect the safety and security
of all our visitors.

EATING & DRINKING AT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS
EATING & DRINKING AT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS
Food and drink are an important part of enjoying The
Championships, be it a quick bite between matches, a more
formal lunch, a quintessential British afternoon tea or a
sundowner when the day’s play has concluded.
We are proud to showcase the rich seasonal harvest and the very
best in British suppliers, producers and artisans. Quality British
ingredients are at the heart of our food and drink ethos and,
where possible, will feature in the broad selection of dishes and
menus available across the Grounds.
STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM
Ever since the first Championships in 1877, the strawberry has had
its place as an indispensable accompaniment to tennis.
Spectators at the All England Club’s original Worple Road
Grounds enjoyed strawberries as they watched matches in the
early days, with the juicy sweet fruit still remaining part of the
heritage and tradition of The Championships today, where a
staggering 28 tons are enjoyed each year.
All our strawberries are grown by Marion Regan. Marion’s great
grandparents began growing strawberries at Mereworth in Kent
in 1893 and the family has been producing them ever since.
To ensure the utmost of freshness, LEAF certified Grade I
strawberries of the highest quality are picked from 4.00am and
delivered by 11.00am to be eaten on the same day.
FULL SERVICE & SELF SERVICE RESTAURANTS
WINGFIELD RESTAURANT (CENTRE COURT)
The Wingfield Restaurant is located on the first floor of Centre
Court overlooking the Tea Lawn and is the only pre-bookable

early and savour our fixed price three course luncheon menu,
which embraces the finest of British ingredients and wines from
around the World. Traditional afternoon tea is available from
3.30pm onwards, where booking is not required. Reservations
can be made online at fmccatering.co.uk.

EATING & DRINKING AT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS
CONSERVATORY KITCHEN (NO.1 COURT)
Choose from both hot and cold lunches such as Lancashire Beef
Stroganoff, Brixham Fish Pie and our Groundsman’s Platters,
or a choice of delicious sandwiches and wraps from the Deli,
accompanied by a range of exciting summer salads. Classic
Wimbledon Strawberries and Cream are available for dessert,
or you can really indulge yourself with an afternoon tea tray of
irresistible treats from the Bakery.
THE BASELINE – CAFÉ BAR (SOUTHERN GROUNDS)
‘Best of British’ showcases some of the finest produce in this
assisted service restaurant. Delicious Sutton Hoo chicken, raised
in Norfolk especially for The Championships, is accompanied by
salt roasted Lincolnshire potatoes and freshly picked British salad
leaves, which can be served either as a salad or in a wrap to go.
CAFÉ PERGOLA (SOUTHERN GROUNDS)
Assisted service lunch and afternoon tea, with hot carvery,
light refreshments and a wine bar. Why not try some of our
succulent slow cooked, ‘Best of British’ Blythburgh free range
pork from Suffolk.

burgers, made with five cuts of Lancashire beef, grilled chicken,
pasta dishes and salads. Alternatively try the Canadian lobster

fudge cake.
EATING & DRINKING AT THE CHAMPIONSHIPS
AFTERNOON TEA
Using the freshest British ingredients, our classic reception
sandwiches, Devon scones with clotted cream and strawberry
jam, selection of tea pastries, along with the Wimbledon
favourite of strawberries and cream is perfect for that late
afternoon treat; all served with a pot of English Breakfast tea
or your favourite infusion.
Fully served Afternoon Tea can be taken in the Courtside
Restaurant or The Veranda after 3.30pm or, if you prefer, you
can create your own at our self service Lounge in No.1 Court or
The Terrace in Centre Court. There is no need to pre-book any
of these restaurants for afternoon tea.
The most quintessential English tradition, the afternoon tea was
introduced to England by Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford
in 1840. 37 years later, and this tradition was served at the first
Championships in Worple Road.
In 1907 Mrs Hillyard, who became a six time Champion, ate a
‘fearful’ tea when persistent rain stopped play: 2 Bath buns, 6 or 7
slices of bread and butter, 3 or 4 cups of tea, 6 or 7 biscuit cakes,
2 or 3 slices of other cake and 3 plates of strawberries. No sooner
had she finished than the Referee requested her to play. She lost
her semi-final match and complained bitterly to the Committee
and the Daily Mail.
FOOD & DRINK – ON THE GO
With a wide range of quick serve food and drink outlets spread
conveniently throughout the Grounds, you are never far away
from a snack or something more substantial. Whether you choose
traditional fish & chips, a tasty Mexican burrito, a delicious wrap,
summer salad or indeed any of our other many options, these less
formal choices give you the chance to find your own space in the
Grounds, and enjoy The Championships at your own pace.
If you fancy something a bit sweeter, there is also ice cream and
Bon Bons which can also be found at one of our handy kiosks.

TICKETS
DEBENTURE TICKETS
DUPLICATE TICKETS
In the interests of safety and security, and in order to comply
with licensing requirements, each debenture ticket can only be
used to enter the Grounds once. Re-admission with a debenture
ticket is only available with an appropriate pass-out (which is
non-transferable) and debenture ticket holders cannot transfer
a debenture ticket if such ticket has already been used to obtain
entry to the Grounds.
The loss of tickets should be reported immediately to the Ticket
Office (020 8971 2739). On verification, duplicates will be issued
but must be collected from the Ticket Office in person by the
debenture holder on the day. Duplicate tickets once requested
take priority over the original tickets. Debenture holders who
request duplicate tickets may be required to assist the AELTC in
connection with the use or abuse of the original tickets issued.
TICKET RESALE KIOSK
We make every effort to ensure that seat tickets which are no
longer needed are made available for resale to people already
within the Grounds. Original ticket holders are requested to put
their unwanted tickets in special red boxes for collection by the
Honorary Stewards or, if they wish to retain them as souvenirs, to
have the barcodes scanned on leaving the Grounds so that a new
ticket may be generated.
Please look after your tickets carefully as duplicate tickets,
if arranged, will attract a charge of £12 per ticket where the
originals have been safely received by the debenture holder but
subsequently lost.
The tickets are re-sold at a nominal charge from the Ticket Resale
kiosk inside the Grounds.
The entire proceeds will be donated via the Wimbledon
Foundation to charities and community organisations. The
Wimbledon Foundation is the charity of the All England
Lawn Tennis Club and aims to change people’s lives using the
resources and heritage of the Club and The Championships.
HSBC, the Official Bank of The Championships, Wimbledon, has
generously agreed to donate in 2016 a sum equal to the total
amount raised by the ticket resale scheme (In 2015, the amount
raised was £159,000 net of VAT).

injury etc.

SATURDAY Boys’ & Girls’ Singles
We do try to play all matches on the courts and days published.
However, occasionally it is necessary to switch a match from one
court to another. This can be for a number of reasons.
For example:
• We aim to complete The Championships on time and this
involves playing 674 matches, in the 16 events, over the 13 days
of the tournament.
• Some players remain involved in several events towards the
end of The Championships and it may be necessary to move a
match to avoid a clash.
• We try to give similar rest periods between matches for players
due to play each other.

TOM AIKENS
Tom Aikens is one of the UK’s most acclaimed and inspirational
chefs, owing to his innovative style and creative interpretation of
modern French cuisine.
After he left college Tom worked at Michelin Starred, David
Cavalier’s restaurant in Battersea, leaving to work for Pierre
Koffman’s La Tante Claire in Chelsea, which gained a third
Michelin star during his time there. Tom also worked with Philip
Britten at the Capital Hotel and as a sous chef at Pied à Terre
in Charlotte Street, under Richard Neat. Tom gained further
inspiration and invaluable knowledge in Paris, cooking with Jöel
Robuchon, and Gerard Boyer at Reims. Tom returned to the UK as
Head Chef of Pied à Terre, where, at 26, he became the youngest
British chef ever awarded two Michelin stars. Here he stayed for
five years.
In 2003, Tom’s eponymous restaurant in Chelsea opened. The
restaurant upheld culinary excellence in a refreshingly relaxed
