The Hong Kong Jockey Club extends its warmest congratulations on the successful conclusion of this year’s LIV Golf Hong Kong on 8 March at the Hong Kong Golf Club (HKGC) Fanling Golf Course. HKSAR Government Financial Secretary Paul Chan, HKSAR Government Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Rosanna Law, Club Executive Director of Corporate Affairs Raymond Tam and other guests attended the tournament, witnessing the trophy‑lift moment.
The Club additionally supported the launch of the Jockey Club Community Golf Programme, which aims to enhance community participation in and awareness of golf and to promote the sport’s long-term development in Hong Kong.
The Programme will offer activities including school-based events, experiential courses and inter-school competitions, with complimentary tickets made available to people in underprivileged communities. In the lead-up to the golf tournament, elite international golfers visited a primary school to engage with students and inspire interest in the sport. Arrangements were also made for golf professionals from HKGC to mentor young players of differing abilities to promote inclusion. These initiatives aim to give young and underprivileged people opportunities to experience the excitement of golf both on and off the course.
The Club’s booth in the fan village added further colour to the event by offering attendees the chance to explore sports beyond golf. Members of the Club’s CARE@HKJC Volunteer Team also took part, creating balloon figures and bringing joy to spectators.
Through these activities and engagement opportunities, local residents had more opportunities to connect with golf, while top golfers and visitors from around the world experienced Hong Kong’s unique character and its capability to host high-calibre major events. This, in turn, helped strengthen the Hong Kong brand and share positive stories about the city.
In 2024/25, the Club’s Charities Trust supported eight “M” Mark events as Official Community Partner. These included the Hong Kong Sevens, the Volleyball Nations League and the Hong Kong Open Badminton Championships, reaching over 81,000 beneficiaries. These partnerships not only inspire the community’s enthusiasm for sport but support the HKSAR Government in strengthening Hong Kong’s status as a premier destination for outstanding sports competitions and major cultural events.
The Club’s support for these sports events, like all its charity and community donations, is made possible by its unique integrated business model through which racing and responsible sports wagering generate substantial tax contributions, charity support and employment opportunities for Hong Kong.
