It brings me joy to welcome the teams to play the Hong Kong International Baseball Open 2015. I am thrilled to have old and new teams come to play this international baseball game and am excited to see the Hong Kong Baseball Association’s passion and ability in promoting the international baseball persistently.
December 2015There is a good chance for baseball to be reinstated the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Let’s pray and wait for the decision of the International Olympic Committee at its meeting to be held in August 2016. All of us in the baseball community must continue working hard, sharpening our baseball skills and behaving ourselves with the highest sportsmanship, to make baseball one of the most popular and welcome sports in the world. This Hong Kong International Baseball Open is a platform for baseball players from different places of the world to enhance their baseball skills through competition and make friends. I wish you enjoying every match you are playing and having a pleasant stay in Hong Kong. Philip Li President of Hong Kong Baseball Association |
