Message from Chairperson of Festival of Sport Organizing Committee

Festival of Sport (FOS) is an annual local mega sport event. The objective in organizing FOS is to promote “Sport for All” through a serious of sports activities; to encourage people from all ages to participate in frequent sporting exercise, and learn to appreciate the benefits of sports. Hong Kong is now facing a difficult time, it is especially important to do more exercise at this time to keep good health, in order to get prepare for the challenges ahead.

We have appointed TANG Hon Sing (Athletics), MA Wing Yu (Cycling), Sophia WU (Fencing) and TONG Yui Shing (Sailing) to be the Ambassadors of 63rd Festival of Sport. The Ambassadors represent different age group with past contribution to sports. They are now in different positions in promoting sports. Their mission is to act as role model of healthy lifestyle; to use their influence to encourage more people to participate in FOS.

To further promote the Olympic atmosphere, Roadshow events in the format of Carnival will be held in shopping malls this year to promote Sport for All, at the same time, to encourage the public to cheer for the Hong Kong athletes and get involve in the “Road to Tokyo” together!

I would like to take this opportunity to express my appreciation to Leisure and Cultural Services Department and all National Sports Associations for their continual support to FOS. Special thanks should also be given to all Members of Festival of Sport Organizing Committee for their valuable contribution.

Wishing everyone good health! Sport for All, Good Health will come along!
