Yep I'm registered on the website.

Can't remember how much the tickets will be, but they'll be better value for money than the 100m sprint final. Highest priced ticket for that is £775....Usain Bolt's current WR is 9.58 secs....so if he equals that then it will have cost £80.90 per second. Bargain!

We had to apply for press passes last year! They're certainly working well in advance!

will definitely go to the boxing finals. Had tickets for last 2 olympic finals and had to cancel both times for weddings.

100m final is a must go to.

i think final tickets are £90, not a bad price.

The ticket ballot is open on the 15th, and it runs for 6 weeks. It isn't a first come first served basis.
So doesn't matter if you register on the first day or the last, if all the tickets are over subscribed it will go to a draw out of the hat type thing. So you may get lucky.
