This month, SAMURAI partner Hong Kong Football Club (HKFC) hosted international football legend, David Beckham, for a visit to their home stadium.
Partnering with Tatler Asia and global sporting charity, Laureus, Hong Kong Football Club ran a football training and skills session for young players from around the city. During the event, David Beckham joined the teams to share his top tips and tricks for the game. He went on to play alongside the club’s Crusaders team and also made time to stop for individual meet and greets with the children, making the day truly memorable for all in attendance.
“Mr. Beckham’s presence brought about unforgettable moments that will be cherished for a lifetime… It was a dream come true for our young players to learn from one of the greatest footballers of all time. Moments like these reinforce our commitment to nurturing a love for football, fostering talent, and building a vibrant community.” - Hong Kong Football Club
David Beckham’s vibrant career has helped shape his legacy in the sporting world to be regarded as one of the most iconic British athletes of all time. As a testament to his dedication to numerous charities and global sporting organisations, HKFC presented him with an Honorary Membership in recognition of his contribution to football worldwide.
