Our historys

The Canberra Labor Club opened in 1979 with a membership of 1500. Over the years the club has grown to become an invaluable asset to the community. It actively supports sporting teams and community organisations making it an integral part of the Canberra community, with a membership of 60,000 and staffing of 160. This community focused Club is well regarded in Canberra as the community’s First Choice. Since opening, the Canberra Labor Club has established a very strong financial position and had the ability to expand.

The Canberra Labor Club Group owns and operates four licensed Clubs throughout the ACT. Expansion has included the purchase of the City Labor Club (formerly the Canberra Workers Club) in 1995 now located in Petrie Plaza 2006, the purchase of the Canberra Labor Club Community Chambers (formerly Norths Rugby) in 1997, the purchase of the Ginninderra Labor Club (formerly the Charnwood Tavern) in 1997, and the purchase of the Weston Creek Labor Club (formerly the Weston Creek Football Club) in 2001.

The Canberra Labor Club Group also owns several commercial properties throughout the ACT. One membership fee covers all 4 venues.

The Canberra Labor Club has always been totally committed to promoting and encouraging responsible gaming practices and the Betsafe program takes this responsibility even further with an ongoing, comprehensive program of staff training, member counselling and community awareness.

The Betsafe program has been developed by the Paul Symond consultancy group and was first launched in NSW by the Minister for Gaming and Racing, the Hon. Richard Face MP in December 1998. The Canberra Labor Club Group, in August 2000, was the first licenced Club to implement the Betsafe program in the ACT.

Betsafe has developed a comprehensive policies and procedure manual which has formed the backbone of the most extensive staff training and patron counselling program ever undertaken by the local gaming industry.

Betsafe is a patron care program, which allows Canberra Labor Club customers to ask for assistance and feel comfortable that it will be dealt with in a confidential and professional manner. The Canberra Labor Club puts these people in contact with professionals who are trained to assist them with their gambling problem.
