Established in 1972 Group North Historical Wargames Society is the longest running and largest gaming club in South Australia. Members of the club play a large number of table top miniature games. If you have a system you want to find an opponent for there is bound to be someone here; and if there is something you want to try it shouldn’t be a problem finding someone with two armies and an interest in helping you learn the game.
The club meets weekly on Wednesday nights and Friday nights (7pm till 11pm) and Sundays (10am-3pm, though closing earlier if less numbers). Extra days are also held as well. Club members running many leagues or open competitions where the public can join in.
