Rooty
Hill RSL Club
Over
forty years ago Rooty Hill RSL Club started
operating as a fully licensed club in modest
premises located in Rooty Hill Road North,
nearly adjacent to the intersection of this
road and Sherbrooke Street.
The club had operated as an unlicensed
facility for three years to this location
and when the doors were officially opened
on February 29, 1964 the membership was
on 127. In the 41 years since this membership
base has grown to over 48,000 members!
This small social club of the early 1960s
is now the largest RSL Club in Australia
and a club that ranks in the top 10 of all
registered clubs of any format. From a club
that was constructed on two suburban building
blocks, the RSL Club & Resort now covers
an area of about nine hectares (20 acres).
The club’s current location is on the
Corner of Railway Street & Sherbrooke
Street and this impressive building was opened
in June 1972.
There have been several major developments
over the past three decades: 1974 (club’s
1st Floor and Fred Chubb Lounge), 1976 (Tivoli
Showroom), 1992 (Hotel), 1996 (hotel’s
Minchins Steak & Seafood Restaurant),
2000 (club’s new Fred Chubb Lounge and
Stardust Café) and 2003 (club’s
TAB/Sports Lounge).
2005 has seen a refurbishment of the Sherbrooke
1 and 2 function rooms and the addition of
four new smaller function rooms in the Holiday
Inn Hotel, a makeover of the Boomerang Function
Room in the RSL Club and in 2006, Pharaohs
Restaurant will be closed and converted into
a major function room. There are also drawing
board plans for other minor upgrades in the
club and hotel plus upgrading and increasing
the facilities of the Fitness /Aquatic Centre.
The need to upgrade and/or increase our club
and hotel facilities is a direct result of
the popularity and success of this profile
complex serving the hospitality needs of over
1 million patrons each year. Despite the increasing
legislation and tax pressures put on the NSW
Club Industry by the current State Government,
the RSL Club & Resort is implementing
strategies that will make the business more
cost effective and financially improved but
not to the disadvantage of our patrons by
decreased service and facilities.
Rooty Hill RSL Club & Resort was re-branded
in 2004-the 40 the club’s 40th birthday
and the message that is now projected into
the wide community is simple but effective,
we are the club that is always entertaining
