Tuen Mun Siu Lun Sports Centre: The first sports centre in the district with a children’s playroom

Tuen Mun Siu Lun Sports Centre, which is located at 19 Siu Lun Street, Tun Mun, is the fifth indoor sports centre of the district and its facilities have gradually been put to use since November last year.  The sports centre is close to many housing estates and is within walking distance for the residents.  Located right next to the Sam Shing Station of the Light Rail, it is easily accessible by public transport.  The sports centre synergises with many surrounding facilities such as Siu Lun Sports Ground and Tsing Sin Playground to provide more leisure and activities space for the public.

To cope with the growing population and demand for recreational and sports facilities in the district, the new sports centre has provided an additional sports venue for residents of different ages, including the district’s first children’s playroom designed especially for children.  The playroom is space-themed and has space bases, spaceships and a variety of recreational facilities such as rope nets and slides, aiming to create physical and sensory challenges for children.

Apart from the children’s playroom, the sports centre also has a multi-purpose arena that can be converted into two basketball courts, two volleyball courts, or eight badminton courts for public hire.  It is also suitable for use as a training or competition venue by schools or other organisations as it can accommodate an audience of up to 500 at the same time.  The second floor of the sports centre has an outdoor sport climbing wall and an indoor sport climbing wall for warm-up purpose.  There is also a fitness room, a table tennis room and three multi-purpose activity rooms.  The new and diverse equipment is suitable for active and sporty people like you.

Working people don’t have time to exercise?  The biennial Corporate Games organised by the LCSD is a major multi-sport event for employees of private and public sector organisations.  It aims to encourage working people to do more exercise and promote the concept of Sport for All by making sports part of people’s daily lives, as well as to foster team spirit among employees through participation in competitions.

The Corporate Games was first held in 1990.  Its success is thanks to support by people from all walks of life over the years and, more importantly, the active participation of athletes.

Participants of the Corporate Games 2020 are actively preparing for the event. The event is held between February and October 2020 at various recreation and sports venues throughout Hong Kong and comprises 11 sports competitions including athletics, badminton, basketball, distance run, snooker, table tennis, tennis, tenpin bowling, volleyball, 7-a-side mini-soccer and 11-a-side soccer. The organisation accumulating the highest scores from all sports events will be awarded a trophy to recognise its effort.
