International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC) – IPSC Action Air World Shoot

Hello Everyone! This is Tommy Yau from BBA-FA. I am here to introduce you an extraordinary fun & exciting shooting sport which you all may have seen it in movies (i.e.鎗王) – International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC).

IPSC shooters need to blend accuracy, power, and speed into a winning combination. Multiple targets, moving targets, targets that react when hit, penalty targets, or even partially covered targets, obstacles, movement, competitive strategies, and other techniques are all a part of IPSC to keep shooters challenged and spectators engaged.

The inaugural IPSC Action Air World Shoot was successfully held in Jun30-Jul2. As a young shooter, I am proud to be representing Hong Kong and captured the overall 3rd place in the Open Division.

Shooting is not only a sport but also a perfect tool to polish many soft skillsets in life. Shooting requires 100% focus all the time, it also trains up EQ as well as helping one to live their lives balanced via regular training, healthy diet and exercises.

I would like to hereby say thank you to the school and PE Section who supported me a lot through the way. I really hope that more young people like YOU will participate in the sport and join my hand to promote this meaningful sport in a positive way.’

~ From YAU Chun Sing Tommy (BBA-FA Year 2)

Press Release – [2018.04.28] 2017-2018 USFHK Dragon Boat Championships Representative Team

恒管代表在四月二十八日(星期六)參加2017-2018大專龍舟錦標賽，當日代表隊表現良好，戰況激烈。

龍舟這項運動日常訓練非常艱辛，當中消秏極大的體能以及需要無窮的意志，是次比賽我校共有二十一名同學參加，經歷無數的風吹雨打，日曬雨淋的訓練，在短短的兩個多月化身為龍舟戰士，與八間院校競逐各項的寶座。賽事於中國香港龍舟總會石門訓練中心舉行，當天早上風和日麗，恒管的戰士憑著個人意志、團體精神和驚人的爆發力，所參加之組別都成功進入複賽。複賽時雖然已消耗大量體力，仍憑著鬥志，咬緊牙關堅持到底，最後躋身複賽第四名，可惜與三甲擦身而過，未能晉級至決賽。

Representative Team joined the “2017-2018 USFHK Dragon Boat Championships” on 28 April 2018. 21 team members were selected to represent HSMC on the event day. The members participated in the men’s small boat and mixed small boat competitions. HSMC team entered the repechage successfully in all events. The races were physically and mentally challenging, but all rowers enjoyed the race very much and expected a better result in the coming years.
