Hong Kong Football Club

I grew up attending this club and still love spending time there. Although I no longer play a sport, it’s a great place to socialise, especially if you’re as much of a rugby fan as I am. During the season (September to April) I love to sit outside the casual Sportman’s Bar watching the matches.
You have to be with a member in order to visit and they will have to pay for any food/​drinks consumes via their membership card — cash is not accepted.
As it’s a membership based club, the prices are subsidised so you can eat and drink very well for a very reasonable price.
There are a number of dining options from casual café settings to the buffet spread at the poolside Coffee Shop. There is even a small shop in the lobby and you can order meat through the Coffee Shop.
I visit the club once a week to play early morning tennis. The courts are on the roof top and are of a pretty good standard, although the middle courts don’t have much side room. The extractor fans that face courts 1 – 3 make is tricky to hear so courts 4 – 6 are the best choice. There is a vending machine that serves soft drinks and a water cooler inside.
As well as tennis, the club has squash, basketball and netball courts plus a gym, pool and a golf simulator. The bowling alley is a hoot whilst kids will enjoy the indoor playground complete with ball pit.
Make sure you silence your phone before entering the club or you/​the member you are with will get hefty $ 500 fine.
Bar the phone rule, the club is extremely relaxed. A great place to spend time, especially for those with families.
