Paper for Legco Panel on Home Affairs Sports Venues for 2006
Paper No. CB(2)497/99-00(01) Paper for LegCo Panel on Home Affairs Sports Venues for 2006 Asian Games INTRODUCTION Before confirming its support for the initiative by the Sports Federation & Olympic of Hong Kong, China (SF&OC) to express an interest in bidding for the right to host the 2006 Asian Games, the SAR Government reviewed the suitability of our sports venues to host the events of the Games. To assist in this review, we engaged the services of the sports venue planning and design company Bligh Voller Nield Sport Pty Ltd (BVN) [ 百和紐特 ]. BVN’s recent experience includes helping to plan and design venues for the 2000 Olympic Games and evaluating the venues used in Bangkok for the 1998 Asian Games. STUDY PROCESS 2. The BVN brief was to assess whether or not the SAR has sufficient sports venues to host a world-class Asian Games in 2006, and one which could be the “best ever Asian Games”. BVN began work on 3 November with a programme of site visits and consolidation of information 2 available from their own data sources. Prior to beginning detailed site inspections and evaluations, BVN examined the report on venue availability prepared by the Provisional Urban Council (PUC) in September 1999. A copy of the report prepared by BVN is at the Annex. Planning Principles 3. In the course of their study the BVN team took account of the typical requirements of venues for major event planning. These differ from the requirements of community sports facilities, and include the following – (a) the need for spectator, media and competition facilities -

32 HK Football Asso to Use Aberdeen Sports Ground
DFMC Paper No. 32/2012 (for discussion on 26.7.2012) Southern District Council District Facilities Management Committee Proposal of the Hong Kong Football Association to use Aberdeen Sports Ground for the First Division Football Match Purpose This paper seeks Members’ views on the proposal of the Hong Kong Football Association (HKFA) to use Aberdeen Sports Ground of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) for the First Division matches starting from September this year. Members are invited to comment on the proposal. Background 2. To promote local football development, the HKFA has been implementing the “Home and Away” scheme for First Division matches since the 2009-10 football season and a number of suitable sports grounds/grass pitches in different regions (including Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories) under the LCSD have been selected as home venues for First Division teams to stage football matches. With the support of the respective District Councils, the scheme has been operating smoothly and success has been achieved in bringing First Division teams to the community. Through promoting and developing football matches in the district level, the scheme helps to establish a relationship between professional football teams and the local community, thereby benefiting the development of the sport. Venues Selected This Year 3. Since the Southern District Football Association will be promoted to the First Division in the 2012-13 football season, the HKFA has proposed to select Aberdeen Sports Ground as the home venue of the football club for First Division matches. The venues being selected this year include: (a) Aberdeen Sports Ground in Southern District; (b) Tuen Mun Tang Shiu Kin Sports Ground in Tuen Mun District; (c) Yuen Long Stadium in Yuen Long District; (d) Tai Po Sports Ground in Tai Po District; 1 (e) Siu Sai Wan Sports Ground in Eastern District; (f) Hong Kong Stadium in Wan Chai District; (g) Mong Kok Stadium in Yau Tsim Mong District; and (h) Sham Shui Po Sports Ground in Sham Shui Po District. -
