HONG KONG, 3 April 2024 – Today, the Hong Kong Football Club grounds thrummed with the energy in anticipation as the 36th edition of the Tradition HKFC 10s got underway. This year's tournament, featuring an expanded field of 12 men’s and 8 women’s teams, commenced with fanfare, setting the stage for two days of high-octane rugby action.


As the competition began, Pig Athletic Club Baabaas, Shogun RFC and A-Trade Overseas Old Boys quickly set the early pace with convincing wins in the Men’s Competition. In the second edition of the eight-team Women’s Competition, China Five Stars and RKS Shogun Rugby have already emerged as formidable contenders, promising intense battles for the final day.


This year’s event marks a significant milestone with the expansion of the women’s competition, reflecting a deepening commitment to advancing women's rugby on a global scale. This move, highlighting the tournament’s role in fostering the sport's growth and inclusivity, promises to bring new dynamics and competitive edge to the games. Kane McKay, Tour Coordinator of the Pig Athletic Club Baabaas said: “It’s fantastic to be here, so great to see people here at HKFC on day 1 of the 10s. It’s an amazing festival vibe.


I feel like Hong Kong rugby is really back on the international stage. The team are playing really good; they’ve got to know each other, they’re super cohesive now playing as a team,it’s almost as though they’ve been playing together for years, really gelling. We’ll keep getting better and doing the small things. On finals day, anything can happen but we’re eyeing off that top spot.”


Heather Fisher, Manager of the Haywards Tropics said: “We’ve got some great players, but I don’t think we’ve maximised our potential yet, however onto day two, and medals are won on day two. These players have never played together before, they’ve come from around the world: New Zealand, France, GB, and it takes time to work off each other. So, I hope tomorrow in the quarter finals we go well, and I’m confident. It’s just about performance, and being the best we can.”


The Tradition HKFC 10s is renowned for bringing together a mix of emerging talent and seasoned veterans from around the world, showcasing the spirit of rugby in all its diversity and camaraderie. With teams poised to make their mark and fans eager for thrilling rugby displays, the tournament is set to write a new chapter in its storied legacy.
