LCSD strengthens promotion of urban sports

******************************************

     To strengthen the promotion of urban sports that have been introduced in the Olympic Games and the Youth Olympic Games, as well as to encourage public participation in sports activities, the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) will organise more urban sports programmes including 3-on-3 basketball, sport climbing, breaking, skateboarding and futsal across Hong Kong this year. Interested members of the public are welcome to join.

     With a view to bolstering the participation of youth, the LCSD will launch a series of free promotional fun days with specific urban sports themes which are suitable for youths, such as Skateboarding Fun Day for Youth, Breaking Fun Day for Youth and 3-on-3 Basketball Fun Day for Youth. Relevant national sports associations will send qualified instructors to demonstrate the sports and teach participants basic skills on-site. Participants can also join a play-in session to experience the fun of urban sports and explore their sport potential.

     For details of the urban sports programmes and the enrolment method, members of the public can visit the LCSD dedicated website (www.lcsd.gov.hk/en/USP/index.html), or make enquiries at any District Leisure Services Offices of the LCSD or recreation and sports venues with Leisure Link Services.
