History of Coogee Randwick Clovelly
RSL sub-branchs

Combined Coogee Randwick Clovelly RSL sub-Branch:

In 2013, members of Clovelly sub-Branch and Randwick–Coogee sub-Branch had informal discussions about merging the 2.

The reason for this was that Clovelly was in the process of selling their building and needed to re-locate their office so that its could continue.

Agreement was reached on all matters , the most important being that the Board members of Coogee Diggers Club agreed to let the new sub-Branch set up its office in club premises.

So, after approval from members of both sub-Branches and RSL State Council, the new sub-Branch commenced its operations as from January 1, 2014.

The current membership of the sub-Branch is 140, comprising Service, Affiliates and Life Subscribers.
