***********************************************************************************
The test event was organised by the NGCO and co-organised by the Basketball Association of Hong Kong, China and the Eastern Sports Club, with the Chinese Basketball Association as advisor. The two-day test event featured four basketball teams, namely Hong Kong A1 Division Championship basketball teams Hong Kong Eastern, Winling and Tycoon, as well as the Hong Kong Men's U22 representative team. The four teams played in the group stage and then vied for the first place, with the Hong Kong representative team ultimately claiming the championship title.
The test event covered a wide array of areas, including event operations and procedures, competition organisation, venue setup, sports and prize presentations, information systems, security, medical services, volunteer services and broadcast arrangements.
The Head of the NGCO, Mr Yeung Tak-keung, said that to ensure full preparation for the eight NG competition events to be staged in the city this November, Hong Kong has already completed test events for seven sports. The final test event, fencing, will be held at the end of next month at Kai Tak Arena in Kai Tak Sports Park. Mr Yeung also expressed gratitude to all related government departments and organisations for providing assistance and support during this test event, adding that the NGCO will review the event procedures and every detail with various related departments and units.
