While people love the social side of Wimbledon, it comes with its own set of court-side rules. There is a need of being punctual, and geting in the seat in good time, respecting the fact that one can only come and go during a changeover. Phones should be on silent. It is also encouraged that the fans be sporting with their support, and never cheer errors or mistakes. Respect the silence during play, and save clapping and cheering for between points. Avoid disturbing the players by calling out, and remember the umpire's decision is final, never heckle or question line calls.
