About us Norths Group encompasses a number of brands including NORTHS in Cammeray, The Greens North Sydney, the Lane Cove Club and seagulls in Tweed Heads. North Sydney Leagues Club, now known simply as NORTHS, was founded in 1955. Like most of the "Leagues" clubs established in the 1950's, NORTHS was the result of its high profile district rugby league team. The club was originally located in a residential property in Neutral Bay and moved to its current site in Abbott St, Cammeray in 1964. Over the past 50-odd years, NORTHS has evolved into a sophisticated and innovative entertainment and recreational centre, servicing Sydney's Lower North Shore community. Facilities include two dining areas, function rooms, a 540 seat auditorium, a state-of-the-art fitness and wellness centre, indoor and outdoor lounge areas, a boutique bottle shop with an impressive selection of quality wines, a platinum TAB, 2 squash courts, and a members rewards program. This is all serviced by a multi-level car park that can accommodate over 320 vehicles. In 1996 NORTHS amalgamated with the historic North Sydney Bowling Club which was founded in 1888 and is one of the oldest in Australia. NORTHS then amalgamated with the Seagulls Club, the former giant of the border clubs at Tweed Heads, in 1998. In 2014 Norths Bowlo was closed, renovated and re-opened at The Greens North Sydney. The latest addition to the group is the Lane Cove Club which amalgamated with NORTHS in 2016.
