THE CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION
Dear Member,
Last year we introduced this Members’ Information Booklet, which sought to bring together various pieces of useful material in an easy to use, single reference point, and as a helpful guide for you and your guests regarding the procedures in operation at the Club in the lead up to, and during, The Championships.
I am pleased to say that we received many positive comments about it and any suggested improvements have been duly incorporated in this version for 2013.
As always, your comments would be welcomed.
I hope you and your guests have a very enjoyable Championships.
PHILIP BROOK
Chairman, Committee of Management of The Championships

When a lunch reservation has been confirmed in the Waitress Service Restaurant, the appropriate number of Full Day Swing Tags will be issued in place of the Restricted Swing Tags. These Swing Tags will be enclosed with Full Members’ Centre Court Tickets.
If during The Championships a last minute lunch reservation is made directly with the Maître d’, the required additional Swing Tags can be collected from the Swing Tag Collection Booth on production of a voucher from the Maître d’.
