Hellenic Club Information

The Hellenic Club was primarily a sporting and businessmen's Club. The Club was originally opened for membership to Greeks from all parts of Greece however, by 1958 it was open to other approved applicants. On 4 December, 1926, the Hellenic Club was incorporated and it served to bring future generations of Greek migrants together. During these early days the Club was supported the Greek Orthodox Church and assisted in the building of the St Sophia Church. The Club also assisted the financing of the Greek Archdiocese. For many years, the membership of the Hellenic Club was restricted to sixty (60) persons. However, during the World War II all Greeks serving in the Armed Forces were accepted as honorary members and had the use of all facilities available, at that time, on those premises.
