Located about six kilometers from the centre of the City, The Club stands as a prominent landmark at the junction of Balestier and Moulmein Roads, commanding a panoramic view of one of the most picturesque playing fields in Singapore. A Management Committee (which includes Lady members), implements the policy, together with an Immediate Past President and Advisors. It was founded by early Singapore Ceylonese professionals to promote sports & camaraderie among residents in Singapore. Originally known as the Lanka Union since January 1920, the Club was reconstituted on 11 June 1928 as the Ceylon Sports Club. It has since, evolved into a premier Family and Sports Club in the Island.
