Hong Kong Scottish RFC Details
Over a century ago exiled Scots in London formed London Scottish FC which is widely regarded as one of the greatest success stories in British rugby.In a similar vein, HKRFU set up a new Premiership team with the support of London Scottish, adopting their badge and sharing their colours (blue, white and red) as a mark of that relationship. This involved a group of exiled Scots engaging with the existing Nomads rugby club and building on a relationship with London Scottish and the strong Scottish community in Hong Kong. Hong Kong Scottish was thus formed, and in early April 2011 the club was launched, playing in the world famous Melrose Rugby Sevens – the birthplace of Rugby Sevens. The club entered into the domestic Premiership Division for the 2011/12 season.Hong Kong Scottish runs four men's rugby sides: Bloomberg Hong Kong Scottish (1st XV), Hong Kong Scottish Nomads (2nd XV), Hong Kong Scottish Bravehearts (3rd XV) and Hong Kong Scottish Phoenixes (4th XV) and two women's rugby teams – Hong Kong Scottish Kukris and Sekonders. The club's home ground in the Shek Kip Mei area of Hong Kong is affectionately known as ‘The Rock'.The club has grown impressively and now boasts more than 600 members (of whom over 300 are playing members). In addition to rugby, the club is represented by the Stags, Eagles (football), Nessies, Thistles, Pipers, Whiskies, Highlanders, Unicorns (netball) and six junior netball sides. The club has also developed partnerships with local charities including The Hub and Changing Young Lives Foundation. Regular events give players and coaches the opportunity to teach local children from Shek Kip Mei and Sham Shui Po districts about rugby and a healthy lifestyle.Hong Kong Scottish is sponsored by business news provider Bloomberg – our title sponsor since 2014.
