The various sport sections include an 18-hole golf course, nineteen tennis courts, five squash courts, cricket pitch, two full sized billiard tables and a large open-air swimming pool. Another section within the Club is the Polo Club, which is reputed to be the first polo club in the western hemisphere, whilst the golf club was founded in 1888.

The club now provides facilities for no less than eight sports disciplines and boasts of a membership nearing 4000; the majority of who are Maltese citizens but including also a large number of expatriate members who have made Malta their home or are working here. The Club also welcomes several thousand visitors per year.
