Sun, Sand, Sea and…Rugby?

Well and truly established within the Hong Kong rugby calendar, the Beach 5s rugby tournament takes the focus of rugby away from the madness of Wan Chai and central, only to crash land in Repulse bay.
Set back from the hype of the Sevens, but not over shadowed, this event brings together the family values of rugby and pitches it into an exotic surrounding.
The high paced, adrenaline pumped action packed round of rugby showcases the Playmore’s playful side once again. The traditional knee length rugby sock is out of the window to great the conceptual twist of the game in a new format.

If sport as a spectacle is what you want, then the Hong Kong Cricket Sixes is the tournament to bowl you over!!!

Playmore’s support of the Six-a-side version of the game, presents the quickest, most fun-filled version of the glorious old game – a feast of world class players, thrilling matches, huge hits and spectacular catches. The Hong Kong Cricket Sixes is the longest-running, best-established and most high-profile sixes tournament in the world. It offers two days of fast and furious action in a festival atmosphere – 8 international teams, 45-minute clashes, global TV coverage and thousands of dollars in prize money up for grabs.

The hallowed wicket has been graced by such talents as Brian Lara, Sachin Tendulkar, Steve and Mark Waugh, Viv Richards, Andrew Flintoff, Adam Gilchrist and Wasim Akram…but who are we to name drop?!? The real stars of the event come from the match attending individuals who make up the enjoy two days of pulsating action. And it is all for a worthy cause – profits from the tournament are ploughed directly back into cricket development in Hong Kong through the Hong Kong Cricket Association.

The Hong Kong Cricket Sixes: the first, the biggest, the best. Nobody does it better.

The launch of ‘Hong Kong Scottish’ follows in the footsteps of exiled Scots in London who, over a century ago, formed London Scottish FC - widely regarded as one of the greatest success stories in British rugby. Supported by London Scottish, the new Hong Kong Scottish team will proudly wear the London Scottish badge and share their colours (red, white and blue) as a mark of the relationship. Scottish rugby legend, Gavin Hastings has also added his weight to the project and will be a key figure in the club moving forward.

To mark the launch of Hong Kong Scottish, the team played in the world famous Melrose Rugby Sevens, the birthplace of Rugby Sevens, in early April, 2011. This will be followed next season with the team’s entry into the domestic Premiership Division. Hong Kong Scottish will be joined by the existing Nomads’ teams in Hong Kong’s community leagues.  The club is committed to supporting the development of rugby locally in Hong Kong, and will be providing coaching support to a number of schools as well as Flying Kukris and Tin Shui Wai Eagles youth rugby clubs.
