Volleyball Nations League Hong Kong presented by China Life (Overseas) is an annual mega sports event featuring top international volleyball teams. Eight world-class teams will be playing a total of 16 matches, competing across 11 - 16 June at the Hong Kong Coliseum.
The Hong Kong Jockey Club is committed to inspiring people of all ages through community sports. As the Official Community Partner of this event, the Club enables over 17,000 people participate and experience the excitement of this major international tournament, all as part of the Club's aim to encourage sports for all.
Among the initiatives is the popular ‘In Touch with the China Volleyball National Team’ event, specifically organised for students to meet and learn from Team China players. In addition, the "Watch and Listen" Volleyball Game programme will work with the Jockey Club Sports Programmes with Audio-description Service to allow the visually impaired to participate in the China Volleyball National Team's practice and enjoy the matches through professional audio-description services.
The programmes will also extend invitations to students to manage ‘Eight International Sports Booths’, a country-themed game booth at the Piazza during the tournament, with the aim of promoting sport for all and enhancing public interest in volleyball. Furthermore, by collaborating with local schools and the para-community, Enjoy Sitting Volleyball "As One", a series of sitting volleyball activities will be held after the tournament to promote disability inclusion.

Establishing The Hong Kong Jockey Club Elite Athletes Fund
The Club stepped in to support elite athletic development in Hong Kong by establishing a long-term trust fund.
Each year, the fund helps over 2,000 elite athletes to pursue sporting excellence.
Beijing 2008 Olympic Games
The Club is honoured as “Outstanding Contributor, Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Equestrian Events” for its provision of world-class facilities and professional services.
Jockey Club Sports Building
How could an old athlete’s hostel be better used?
The Club answered this question by redeveloping a former athletes’ hostel into a multi-purpose elite training and coaching centre.
The new building includes a 20,000 square foot indoor venue specifically for Paralympic and junior elite athlete programmes, helping to widen access to elite training in Hong Kong.
Jockey Club Athlete Incentive Awards Scheme
The Club was the proud sponsor of the Hong Kong Sports Institute’s Jockey Club Athlete Incentive Awards Scheme, helping over 218 Hong Kong athletes.
The Scheme was awarded to medallists of six major games, including the 2016 Rio Olympic games, with 25 Hong Kong athletes receiving awards.
Jockey Club Continuing Coach Education Programme
Knowing that sporting greats can never achieve success on their own, since 2016 the Club has supported the Jockey Club Coach Education Programme.
The programme ensures quality, internationally benchmarked coaching is available at all levels of sports in Hong Kong.
Since its inception, over 99,000 participants have benefitted from the programme.

Sports Legacy Scheme – Jockey Club “Flying High” Sports Programme
This programme supported 90 local secondary schools in first 3 years to engage with elite athletes, helping promote understanding of Olympic values to students, build their fitness level, and increase their knowledge of potential careers in sports. The programme has reached 180 secondary schools so far, and provides career opportunities and training for retiring or retired athletes to share their expertise.
Club-supported Sports Science and Research Funding Scheme
The Club has provided a major boost to elite sports development by strengthening research and development of elite sports in Hong Kong.
The Club-funded Sports Science and Research Funding Scheme helps upgrade sports-tech and equipment, support advancements in sports medicine, and prepare Hong Kong’s elite athletes for regional and international sporting events.

Jockey Club Athlete Incentive Awards Scheme
To recognise and incentivise elite athletes in Hong Kong, the Club is once again sponsoring the Hong Kong Sports Institute’s Jockey Club Athlete Incentive Awards Scheme.
Through the Club’s expanded support, the scheme will increase the awards available to elite athletes, as well as expand the number of sporting competitions that the scheme applies to.
Jockey Club Sports PLUS Elite Athletes Community Programme
This new programme will bring Hong Kong’s elite athletes into the community, directly engaging the public through community sporting events and initiatives.
Through the programme, athletes will share their personal stories with the public to promote, educate and share insightful experiences of being a full-time athlete.
