Chinese New Year Academy-a big success

18 February 2013

The Academy ran for 3 days over the CNY period at the Hong Kong Football Club with age groups U8, U9, U10, U11, U12, U13 and U14 taking part.


APB Chartis Cup winning coach, Pat Lam headed up the sessions with Hale T Pole and Nemani Nadolo assisting. Special Thanks goes out to our other Hong Kong based coaches: Dan Falvey, Adam Dehaty and Jamie Sharrock.


6 Scholarships to the Easter Academy were awarded for outstanding play, teamwork and leadership. These went to:

JJ Tullis and Jem Wilson (U8-U9), Aaron Varsanyi and Iain Carmichael (U10-U11), Lauren Chillington and Elizabeth Knight (U13-U14).  Congratulations to all - we look forward to seeing you at Easter!

Registration for the Easter Academy will start at the end of this week.  The camp will run Monday-Wednesday after the Sevens so expect some big names from the APBs Tens team (reigning champions) to stick around.


Your support for the boys at the Tens will be greatly appreciated so come down to the HKFC Weds 20th and Thurs 21st March to cheer them on and watch them in action. Squad list to be confirmed shortly.


Thank you to all those who attended the APB Academy over Chinese New Year.  The feedback we received has been fantastic and we look forward to the next one!
