The club was founded as the result of a public meeting called by Henry F. Dench and chaired by J. H. Finlayson. The Governor, Sir T. Fowell Buxton accepted the position of patron. Lavington Bonython, James Marshall, R. Kyffin Thomas, W. H. R. Porter, F. W. Thomas, F. Coombs, B. H. Pascoe, W. Thyer, F. W. Good, W. D. Reed, V. Lawrence, H. A. Grainger, F. A. Crump, J. H. Finlayson, and E. Eglinton were among the charter members.[5] Sir Edwin T. Smith, Robert Barr Smith, William Gilbert, and A. H. Grainger were also among the founding members and supporters. The first green was established on a plot {{convert|300 by 95|yards|m}} behind Government House, North Terrace.[6] Its location was later an impediment to a plan by the Adelaide City Council to extend Kintore Avenue through to Victoria Drive and so provide another exit from the city and so reduce traffic congestion.[7] The Club now has its premises on Dequetteville Terrace in the East Parklands.
