The United Services Recreation Club (USRC) (Chinese: 三軍會; lit. 'three armed-forces club') is a club located on Gun Club Hill Barracks site at Gascoigne Road in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Originally it was a British colonial establishment but now is a property of the People's Liberation Army after they took over the barracks on 1 July 1997.
History
The club was founded in 1911 for the benefit of British officer-level personnel. It was considered one of the key social clubs for military officers. During the Japanese occupation, it was used by Japanese military personnel. Queen Elizabeth Hospital was built on the USRC's former golf course.
After the handover of Hong Kong to China, the land on which the USRC is located is now property of the PLA garrison. However, according to previous agreements the PLA has not intervened with the club's activities, and shares no profits. In 2011, a book was published called Trees of the United Services Recreation Club.
From the beginning, the club admitted civilian members in order to balance out the transient nature of the military population.
Today, the majority of members are civilians.
