The USRC opened in 1911 to cater for the military presence in Hong Kong following the leasing of the New Territories to the British for 99 years in 1898.
The Club served mainly armed services and related personnel until the expiry of the 99-year lease and handover of Hong Kong to China in July 1997. |

The Club is now administered as a limited company with a wholly civilian membership, and enjoys a freedom of operation similar to that of other recreation clubs in Hong Kong.
The Club's military legacy is evident in the understated elegance of the architecture and decor. Shields of battalions past and present adorn the walls and the Club retains a relaxed informal atmosphere in keeping with its colonial roots. The USRC has a proud sporting history which continues to be maintained - the USRC competes for honours in the Hong Kong sporting scene much as the military teams did in years gone by. The USRC maintain membership numbers at moderate levels that will enable its members to enjoy the space, greenery and timeless ambiance of this unique facility.
