A debenture literally means a document that either creates or acknowledges a debt. The term is quite common in usage in corporate world to mention the debt instruments to borrow money. In sports, this provision is used by many Clubs to provide a financial stake to their fans and the money is used for the raising funds for upbringing of the Club. The AELT Club too has debentures sold to the fans of Wimbledon for tenure of five years. In return, they get a pair of wimbledon 2010 tickets for every day in all the courts for all the five years until the investment lasts. Resale of tickets at a price higher than actual, for profit is common though illegal in every event for entertainment. The Wimbledon Championship too is not free from the ghastly grip of such touts. However the debenture holders have the right to sell their Wimbledon tickets to a third party. Recently, in 2007, the debenture holders of the Wimbledon started a website named www.wimbledondebentureholders.com to enable the sale of wimbledon tennis tickets directly to the customers without the intervention of a middle man. This ensures that the tickets reach the customer at reasonable prices with none to share the profit.
