About

History of the Club

The XLI Club was first formed in 1968. At the time Bill Crowley, a Police Inspector and Secretary of the Police Association, was in the habit of going out for lunch once or twice a month with several honorary members of the Police Association Club situated at 41 to 45 McKenzie Street alongside Russell Street Police Headquarters. At one of these lunches it was decided to form their own club with a monthly luncheon at the Police Club.
