The Bar
The Clubhouse is the focal point of everything that happens at Hendon RFC. First built in 1968, the clubhouse has had a facelift many times through the years. In 2020, work was undertaken to improve the appearance of the interior of the building.
With a new flooring and a clean up (pictured above), the bar area was really transformed. The Bar area is constantly being upgraded, where possible, with new ideas and concepts to improve the general experience. All works undertaken are done so by volunteers and all upgrades try to maintain a traditional rugby club feel.
The Clubhouse is open on Training and Match Days, then as and when required for events and meetings.
Anyone wanting to use the facility should contact John-Paul (JP) at johnpaulcremin@hotmail.co.uk where he will be able to advise on availability.
The Exterior and Pitches
Work on the outside of the building began in 2020 to improve the appearance of the facility. With a fresh paint job and deep clean of the weeds, the clubhouse went from being very dull to looking much brighter and more inviting. The hard work of volunteers, with the backing of the club committee, really paid off.
Hendon has 2 pitches available to play their home games, these are maintained by the local council and in recent years, their ability to withstand the weather has drastically improved. Although still not perfect, we are sure some of the Hendon old guard would definitely agree they are definitely better.
The Changing Room Transformation
In 2018, a new and improved first team changing was created, the following off-season saw works begin on the 2nd team changing room. All works were completed by Club Players and Members in their own free time.
