Past Events

Funded by The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, the 3-year Jockey Club Row for Future Scheme has now entered its second year. The programme has expanded its target beneficiaries from secondary schools to special schools, primary schools, and tertiary education institutions, expanding its reach to participants from diverse backgrounds. In this quarter, we carry on to conduct indoor VR rowing programme and organise board rowing experience activities at the HKAYP Jockey Club Expeditions Centre and Sai Kung area. Furthermore, we organised “Row for Future Challenge Day”, inviting 120 participants dividing into “Single”, “Double” and “Group” sectors to race in kayaking, stand up paddle, and board rowing. We are delighted to see participants giving their all and showcasing extraordinary sportsmanship, as well as demonstrating a strong team spirit in the relay race.

AYP co-organised with CLP Power Hong Kong Limited to hold CLP Power Ambassador Programme, CLP Smart Evening Camp, and Power Journey at the CLP E-Playground of The HKAYP Jockey Club Duke of Edinburgh Training Camp for the third consecutive year. Over the year, more than 1,300 and 550 participants joined the evening camp and Power Journey respectively. They learnt more about power conservation and renewable energy, and environmental awareness through interesting activities and facilities.

Funded by the Jockey Club Charities Trust, we stepped into the second year of the Jockey Club “Camily” Project with over 600 parents and children participated in activities themed on Skills, Physical Recreation and Expeditions, such as creative Tie Dye, Floor Curling, Climbing, Abseiling and Adventure Camping tasks like building tents. The project aims to improve young people’s self-esteem and self-care abilities. Parents can understand more about their children’s characters and abilities, and enhance the communication and bonding amongst them.

Funded by HKEX Foundation, and allocated and monitored by the Community Chest, AYP organised the “Sports ZERO” project aiming to promote environmental sustainability. We held “ZERO Hero” Journey, Creation ZERO Workshop, and ZERO Games, in which participants first collected disposable plastic bottles through beach clean-up by kayaking, then used upcycling plastic to create equipment for Newly Emerged Sports and at last participated in environmental friendly emerging sports games and donated products to the community. We aim to promote waste-to-energy, letting young people and the public learn more about green lifestyle by integrating sustainability concepts into sports activities.
