About Us
Porirua Club first opened in 1965. It was initially a Men's Club, with 207 members. The first club premises were in the Anvree Building, Cobham Court. In 1971, the club opened the doors at 1 Lodge Place - a prime site in Porirua. Designed for a membership of 1000, the clubrooms were later extensively enlarged in 1974. Membership now ranges between 2500 and 2800 members, including several life members.
Through the good fortune of having competent staff, careful committees and solid member support, the Club has seldom failed to operate on anything other than a profitable basis. Additionally, many contributions are made to charity and non-profit organisations throughout the area.
Porirua Club is a great asset to Porirua City. and one that will continue to be part of the community supporting the community for many years to come.

A few words from our President
“The Club offers a wide variety of activities, which include indoor and outdoor sporting events, evening entertainment, and regular social activities. Our indoor facilities further support our social atmosphere – from the Club library, through to the TAB and gaming area – it’s all part and parcel of your Club membership!
The Club also has excellent dining facilities and caters for many functions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, etc. Our friendly and co-operative atmosphere is reflected throughout the Club. Our Sec/Manager, Staff, Board of Management and myself will always be pleased to help you in any way we can. Just ask.
Once you have tested the waters, so to speak, it would be nice of you to introduce your family, friends and acquaintances to the benefits of becoming a member of the Porirua Club.”
John Hearps, President
