Ashes Tickets Available via Ballot

Yorkshire County Cricket Club has announced that in view of high public demand for next summer's fourth ashes test to be held at Headingly; that they have established an online ballot system to decide the allocation of the few remaining tickets that are to be put on sale.

Australia play England at Headingley Carnegie between Friday August 7 to Tuesday August 11, 2009.

The online ballot will open on Monday December 1 and close on January 31 2009. To enter the ballot you simply have to fill out an online form that can be found on the official Yorkshire County Cricket site.

The draw will take place during February with the successful applicants be notified.

Each applicant will be able to apply for up to four tickets per day on the ballot form. The number of tickets available may be revised to two tickets per person per day in view of the number of applicants who register online.

Please note that Yorkshire CCC have stressed that applications will not be accepted over the telephone or in person under any circumstances. To avoid disappointment, interested parties should not come to the ground or telephone the club on December 1.

Should more ashes tickets become available in the future Yorkshire CCC will hold similar ballots.

Good Luck getting your hands on some ashes tickets!
