RSA Napier name changes to Clubs Napier

The Napier RSA has changed its name to Clubs Napier and confirmed it has split from the national body. Fresh signage featuring the new name and logo has gone up on the clubrooms on the edge of the Napier CBD, replacing the RSA signage.
 
The Napier RSA was one of the longest-standing RSA’s in the country. The Napier RSA was founded in 1916 by local men who saw the need for an organisation to support and assist those soldiers returning from both Gallipoli and the European conflicts. Many were physically and mentally affected by the war and were finding it hard to re-adjust and fit into society.
