“Game On” in Tsuen Wan as D‧PARK Launches Four-Day Sports Fest

D‧PARK in Tsuen Wan has launched a large-scale community sports festival this week. Hosted by Chinachem Group (CCG), the mall converted 10,000 square feet of its indoor space into a temporary sports arena as part of a four-day programme promoting active living and intergenerational engagement.

The event, “Game On”, opened on Thursday following a press preview attended by athletes, senior sports veterans, community representatives and performers. The initiative aligns with citywide enthusiasm for the National Games, with organisers positioning the festival as a platform to encourage residents of all ages to participate in accessible, recreational sporting activities.

“At CCG, we believe creating an ideal community goes beyond building structures, but about fostering meaningful connections through thoughtful spatial design and impactful events,” said Andy Cheung, the event’s officiating guest.

The launch brought together a broad mix of local sports figures and celebrities. Attendees included artists Danny Lau and Kalok Chow, professional boxer Rex Tso, and several senior competitors from the World Masters Games, aged between 80 and 90. Veteran track-and-field athlete Lok Suet-yee also joined the programme, highlighting how lifelong participation in sports supports physical health and strengthens social bonds.

The Tsuen Wan Games are structured in two phases. The first phase, Get Ready, began in October and featured more than 70 warm-up activities designed to build momentum and introduce residents to a range of sports. The second phase, “Game On”, runs from November 20 to 23. The opening day is reserved for non-profit organisations including elderly, youth and community groups, allowing them priority access to the sports arena. The remaining three days are open to the public free of charge.

Inside the arena, visitors can participate in ten interactive sports stations, ranging from fencing and bowling to rugby, golf, archery, track cycling and cornhole. Several stations, including the track cycling challenge, feature adjustable settings to accommodate participants of different ages and abilities, enabling children and adults to take part side by side.

The programme also introduces beginner-friendly emerging sports such as Molkky, a Finnish throwing game, and Animal Flow, a bodyweight workout influenced by gymnastics and yoga. Trial classes for both activities are offered at scheduled intervals during the festival.
