KOWLOON CARES
Kowloon in the Community
We believe the club is only as strong as it's community, and our home is Kowloon. As such, we support the Kowloon community through our outreach program, "Kowloon Cares" ensuring our values and the rugby values shine through on and off the field.
The program is offered in two formats and is supported by the Kowloon Nine Dragons, our club's outreach and community support program. However, the program would not be possible without the generous support of corporates and members of the club.
Community Days
The community engagement days provide access to a wide range of rugby and netball-based games for additional needs children of differing abilities. ‘Kowloon Cares’ works with Love 21, schools and corporates to provide a tailored experience for these students, their siblings and their families. Companies have the ability to sponsor a day as part of their CSR initiatives, helping to fund the program and engage in the delivery of the day by having employees get involved as much as possible.
School students looking to complete service programs (CAS) are also heavily involved in the initiative and harness valuable skills as they learn what it takes to plan and prepare for the delivery of these experiences.
Once you attend one morning event, you will realise this is a gift that gives to everyone involved and will look forward to returning to show you truly care.

-
A company branded event for between 60 - 100 participants
-
Company branded t-shirt and hats

Learn English Through Sport
The English through Rugby program is a new initiative that aims to improve the physical literacy and English language skills of students in the Kowloon district. The program is offered through the support of corporates that care and is delivered by a team of professional coaches in schools. The program adheres to the well-established HKCR program curriculum and is delivered on a weekly basis for 8-12 weeks. All participants who successfully complete the course are awarded a certificate of completion. Target schools will be those in the Kowloon district where students can't always afford to join after school activities.
The overall aim of both programs is to provide Kowloon based youth an opportunity to engage with others in the community and improve opportunities for everyone to live an active lifestyle.
If you would like to learn more about how you can get involved in these initiatives as a volunteer, corporate partner, or as a school please contact admin@kowloon-rugby.com
