I work at Wimbledon and there’s a room few people know about… but it has strict rules after disaster last year

RISKY Wimbledon goers have been taking advantage of a private room by the courts for some racy doubles action.

Tournament bosses have warned fans against using the quiet space to become a member of the raunchy “Wimbledon high club”.

The prayer room, which can also be used by breastfeeding mums or vulnerable guests who simply need a break from the sun, has risen some eyebrows in previous years.

Wimbledon’s official access guide described the area, it read: “Located in the Southern Village, this sanctuary offers guests a peaceful space to pray, meditate or just be present in the moment.”

But, inside sources have described couples occupying the “safe space” by court 12 for more intimate activites.

To the shock of fellow Wimbledon goers, “sounds of intimacy” could even be heard from behind the door, and people donning “big grins” emerged afterwards.

A source previously told The Sun: “Everyone around them was joking with them.

“There was no doubt what they had been up to.” 

Sally Bolton, chief executive of the All England Lawn Tennis Club, has issued a warning to anyone planning on abusing the “sanctuary” this year.

Speaking on the first day of the tournament, she said: “It’s a really important space.

“So, we will be retaining it and we’ll be making sure that people are using it the right way.

“If people need space to go to pray, it’s the quiet space for that. There is an opportunity to breastfeed in there.

“But, we are looking for it to be used in the right way.”

As reported by the Telegraph, an insider explained that a “sheepish” looking couple walked out of the prayer room last year.

He added: “She was in a long flowing summer dress and there was no doubt as to what they had been up to.”

One official has since branded it the “Wimbledon high club”, a pun on the Mile high club.

It comes after residents also pinned up a notice in nearby woods asking visitors not to romp.

A note from a worried homeowner was put on a tree in Wimbledon Park.

It read: “Game Sex and Match NO THANKS.

“Visiting tennis fans please respect our park and woodland.

“Anti-social behaviour such as drugs, booze and sex parties will not be tolerated.

“Police patrol this area regularly and you have been warned. Thanks for your consideration. Enjoy the tennis!”
