The present-day Penang Sports Club comprises the Club's old building which has been renovated, and the two new wings to cater for the increasing number of its members through the years.

The Cannon is a symbolic representation for the Club as it is one of the predominant landmarks unique to Penang Sports Club. Our Clubhouse is guarded by its two cannons and a mortar in the centre. These authentic Pre 18 century black powder cannons and mortar are part of the Club since the Club moved to its current building.
