Wimbledon is actually a Tennis club and Tennis school for the remaining 50 weeks of the year , but i believe the centre court is only used for Wimbledon .

I heard they do tours of Wimbledon where you can go in and have a look around and they have some tournaments as well like the junior Wimbledon title and just practise on the outside courts for up and coming players, if there are any? I don't think the centre court gets used very much apart from when it's VIP matches or just the Wimbledon tournament itself.

Well, they also play tennis, cause it it's a tennis club, they don't call it Old England Club for nothing:)
Centre Court and court number 1 are used only during Wimbledon

They rip up the grass and sow need seed ready for the next season.
Wimbledon is also having major building work done to Centre Court.

For one thing, reseed not the players but the precious grass - best quality bents and fescues, I've heard, none of your common-or-garden ryegrass - ready for when it begins to rain again in late June 2008.

It is a very prestigious tennis club with many playing members. They play croquet there as well.

It's turned in to a survivalist complex where ten armed contestants battle it out on a Japanese game show.

I presume it's a tennis school or club, but a very good question.

they leave the covers up, let the swimming pool form, connect the slides and jump in!
Sometimes they even have a dolphin show
