Established on May 6, 1860, The Olympic Club enjoys the distinction of being one of America’s oldest athletic clubs. Long a West Coast powerhouse in amateur sports, the Club is the home of many local, regional, national and international champions.
In 1860, The Club was founded with 23 charter members, and has grown to a membership of over 11,000. Olympians enjoy access to two historic clubhouses in San Francisco: City Clubhouse, near Union Square, and Lakeside, adjacent to the Pacific Ocean and Lake Merced.
Built in 1912 after the 1906 earthquake and fire destroyed the original building, the City Clubhouse was restored to its original glory in 2006. The clubhouse features a fitness center, group fitness classes, handball and squash courts, two basketball courts, two swimming pools, hotel rooms, three dining facilities, 18 guest suites and two bars, in addition to other amenities.
In 1918, the Club assumed operations of the Lakeside Golf Club, giving members a second clubhouse. Ever since, golf has played a prominent role in the Club’s history. The OC has hosted five U.S. Open Championships plus many more professional and amateur events with a remarkable lineup of prestigious events in the coming years, including the 2021 U.S. Women’s Open, 2025 U.S. Amateur Championship, 2028 PGA Championship and 2032 Ryder Cup. In addition to three golf courses, Lakeside is home to a tennis facility with clubhouse, eight tennis courts (6 hard and 2 clay), a fitness room, two dining facilities and two bars, as well as other amenities.
