INFORMATION PACK<br />

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (the gatsby club)<br />

Q: When will I receive my documentation?<br />

A: We aim to send all documentation and passes<br />

for The Gatsby Club out to you two weeks before<br />

the day you attend.<br />

Q: Do you send court tickets out in the post?<br />

A: No, we give all court tickets out on the day<br />

during lunch. As you will appreciate, these are<br />

valuable items that cannot be replaced, so we<br />

keep them safe for you until you need them.<br />

Q: Can I leave my suitcase/luggage in The Gatsby<br />

Club?<br />

A: By all means, we have a fully staffed<br />

cloakroom throughout the day.<br />

Q: Where is the best place to meet my guests?<br />

A: The best place to meet your guests is at your<br />

designated table. Our hostesses will escort you<br />

and your guests to this location whenever they<br />

arrive.<br />

Q: Do I need to do anything before the event?<br />

A: We will be sending you a form to complete<br />

eight weeks prior to the event requesting a<br />

host name for your party - and any dietary<br />

requirements they may have.<br />

Q: Can I watch matches on Centre Court and No.1<br />

A: Unfortunately not. Packages are purchased<br />

said, if you wish to purchase Centre Court tickets<br />

for half of your party and the other half for No.1<br />

Court, you will be covered!<br />

ties are not obligatory.<br />

Q: How far is The Gatsby Club from the ground?<br />

A: The ground is less than a two minute stroll<br />

from the ground. There is a shuttle buggy located<br />

outside The Gatsby Club should anyone feel they<br />

need a lift.<br />

Q: If I come by London Underground, how do I get<br />

to The Gatsby Club?<br />

A: There is a shuttle bus that runs between<br />

The Gatsby Club and Southfields underground<br />

the morning between Southfeilds underground<br />

station and The Gatsby Club but heavy traffic at<br />

peak times can slow the service down.<br />

Q: Can you ensure that all of my debenture seats<br />

will be together?<br />

A: Debenture tickets are sold in pairs, but we<br />

will try our utmost to seat you next to, or near<br />

to each other. As an official supplier, our ticket<br />

provision from The AELTC is very good. Seats are<br />

allocated to clients a few days prior to the date<br />

you are due to attend.<br />

Q: Who should I inform if my guests have<br />

dietary requirements?<br />

A: A pre-event form will be sent out to you<br />

around eight weeks prior to the event. The form<br />

gives you the opportunity to indicate if your<br />

guests have any specific requirements including<br />

vegetarian options. If you find out after this time,<br />

please contact your account manager as soon as<br />

possible. Our events team will make every effort<br />

to accommodate any late requests.<br />

Q: Who will I see playing?<br />

A: The order of play is not known until the<br />

evening before and is produced by The AELTC<br />

Referee.<br />
