【香港，2026年6月19日】: 中國香港欖球總會（欖總）男子及女子高級發展十五人欖球隊——中國香港龍隊（Hong Kong China Dragons）將於6月20日遠赴獅城，與新加坡精英十五人欖球發展隊展開較量。 女子組賽事將於星期六下午4時率先開賽，隨後男子組賽事將於下午6時15分接力上演。這不但是中國香港女子龍隊歷史上首個海外國際賽事，亦是欖總與新加坡欖球總會官方女子欖球發展計劃之間的首次歷史性對壘。 女子龍隊主教練由曾榮登中國香港欖總名人堂、前七人及十五人欖球隊隊長陳朗詩擔任。龍隊球員均來自本地聯賽，球隊自4月進行選拔後便展開新賽季，並自5月起投入集訓。由於球員需要兼顧全職工作或學業，兩隊球員在休賽期皆付出了極大努力，進行了密集的備戰。 中國香港欖球總會女子龍隊主教練陳朗詩在球員時代身為本港頂尖職業運動員之一，她對球員的表現感到非常滿意：「球員們展現了強大的心理素質，不僅全力配合我們系統化的體能與力量訓練計劃，更堅持每個星期日清晨進行集訓。她們在備戰期間的進取態度和效率讓人讚賞。」 在出發前往新加坡前，龍隊與中國香港U23女子隊進行了一場練習賽。兩隊將於7月4日在香港足球會再度交鋒，屆時，這場比賽將作為香港足球會女子欖球慶祝活動日的壓軸焦點賽事。陳朗詩深信球隊已準備就緒，能從今次首個海外賽事中汲取最大的經驗。 此次隨隊前往新加坡的教練團隊中還包括了五位新晉教練，其中包括前中國香港代表隊成員李嘉萱。陳朗詩補充道：「我們的首要目標，是為球員和管理團隊提供一次積極且具意義的體驗，讓她們切實感受代表隊的運作模式。這關乎學習如何在壓力下受訓、執教和執行戰術，並適應充滿挑戰的高性能運動環境。」 「由於大部分球員來自本地超級聯賽A組或社區球會，而我們的教練團隊亦是從本地球會的助理教練晉升而來，這次訓練賽為他們提供了一個安全但具挑戰性的環境，能夠加速他們的成長。」「教練團隊展現了巨大的潛力。 這次訓練賽不僅是球員的舞台，也是教練們的發展階梯。我們的目的是提供一個平台，讓他們將球會的作賽及執教經驗轉化到代表隊的環境中，學習如何在海外賽事中管理球隊，並培養領導能力，為香港欖球的長遠發展帶來貢獻。」 陳朗詩此前亦曾執教中國香港女子十五人欖球代表隊。雖然女子龍隊首度亮相國際賽，但男子龍隊將繼上季首度出訪後，第二度與新加坡十五人欖球發展隊交鋒。本港欖球名將在退役後積極轉身投入推動本地欖球發展，另一位中國香港欖總名人堂成員、代表中國香港出賽次數最多的前七人欖球名將姚錦成，正領軍男子龍隊發展計劃。 姚錦成信心十足，認為球隊在一年的沉澱與準備後實力更勝從前：「去年我們派往新加坡的陣容由年輕球員及幾名資深球員組成。雖然當時的成績未如理想，但那次經驗對球員的成長十分重要。」姚錦成教練續說：「我們保留了去年的幾位核心成員，同時加入了新面孔。整體而言，我們在經驗、戰術及體能上都有所提升。 球員對我們的戰術部署亦有更深理解，因此我們深信球隊實力較去年更強。「面對新加坡，我們期待球隊能展現出更成熟的表現，在戰術執行力和紀律上都有所進步，並以爭取更好成績為目標。球員的態度非常積極，團隊士氣高昂，我們對目前的備戰進度感到滿意。最重要的一點，是讓球員累積寶貴的國際賽事經驗。」 男子龍隊今次將缺少去年表現亮眼的超新星兼年輕傳接鋒徐葦立。他憑藉在龍隊的優秀表現脫穎而出，成功躍升為約30多名獲得職業合約、入選香港世界盃集訓隊的球員之一。這條晉升軌跡無疑為其他球員樹立了奮鬥目標。這樣的成果正正凸顯了龍隊這類發展計劃的重要性。 計劃旨在從較低組別聯賽中發掘年輕、且以本地為主的球員，加速他們的成長，推動他們提升水平，並期望他們最終能達到中國香港欖球代表隊的水平。 雖然徐葦立目前正跟隨世界盃集訓隊出征，展開為期一個月、前往新西蘭及赴南美洲出戰世界欖球國家盃，但龍隊陣中仍不乏焦點球員，例如在今年5月及6月的亞洲欖球錦標賽中首度代表中國香港上陣的伍兆隆。他在5月對陣斯里蘭卡的首秀中，於最後一秒達陣，奠定勝局。 姚錦成教練續指：「這班球員極具潛力，當中有幾位出色的領袖，包括與亞洲欖球錦標賽陣容中訓練的伍兆隆和任家俊。他們年輕、充滿活力且樂於學習。如果他們能保持專注並持續進步，我相信他們未來能為中國香港隊取得更大的成就。這次賽事是他們成長的絕佳機會。」 男、女子組的賽事將於新加坡欖球總會的YoYouTube頻道進行直播：https:////w/www.y.youtube.com/c/channel/UCmH4fszMjpJfSrhzHiPAPA1vw 。 中國香港女子龍隊 VS 新加坡欖球女子發展選拔隊隊員名單： 1. 鄭樂童 2. 張皓恩 3. 馮采怡 4. 洪籽晴 5. 崔詠茹 Natalie IRELAND 6. 梁凱誼 7. 7. 梁芷軒8. 司徒卓敏 9. 謝芷恩 10. 王思敏 11. 歐陽廲敏 12. 貝爾 Riva BRILL 13. 陳以靜 14. 張易詩15. 蔡藝琳 16.

JUNE 16, 2026 SINGAPORE - Sport Singapore (SportSG) and FIBA have further solidified their partnership to host several international FIBA 3x3 basketball events from 2026 to 2031. Starting with the Lion City Challenger in June 2026, fans can look forward to two FIBA 3x3 Challenger events and one FIBA 3x3 Women’s Series event each year till 2031. This reflects a shared commitment to further grow the sport in Singapore and cement Singapore’s position as a premier destination for world-class sporting events. Having hosted the FIBA 3x3 Asia Cup from 2022 to 2026, and the FIBA Intercontinental Cup from 2023 to 2025, Singapore has built a strong foundation for this expanded partnership. These events also present invaluable opportunities for Singapore's national players to compete regularly against top-ranked international athletes on home ground. The experience and exposure are central to SportSG's efforts to sharpen the skills of our Team Singapore athletes and cultivate the next generation of basketball talent, while broadening the sport's appeal and raising awareness across the wider community. Mr Daryl Yeo, Deputy Chief Executive Officer (Development) of SportSG said, “Basketball, one of the most popular team sports in Singapore, has witnessed steady growth in recent years.
