G4S SECURE SOLUTIONS

G4S Secure Solutions provides security at a number of high-profile sporting events and is very aware that success depends on creating a safe and welcoming environment for competitors, event staff and the public.

G4S has provided Security Officers and specialist security services to The Championships for the last 20 years, securing the event by controlling access, carrying out compulsory bag searches and providing on-site security. At its peak, several hundred G4S staff are involved.

The security of the sporting stars themselves is also an important consideration. Over-zealous fans can pose a threat in their desire to get up close to their idols. At The Championships, all players are escorted to the courts by dedicated G4S security staff, who also help to manage the crowds to minimise the risk of attack.
