Some will hopefully end up being professional players. The event is also about fun and enjoyment and providing purposeful leisure time for young people. The HKFA is delighted to organize this event once again and as ever we are indebted to our partners, LCSD and the HK Jockey Club for their vital support. I would encourage as many people as possible to take part in this year’s programme and I hope it will be a great learning experience for everyone.”
