'Little Giants'

Swire Resources and Marathon Sports helped to fund the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups Community Team Sports Office's Little Giants Sports Achievement Programme. Launched in September, this programme uses non-contact rugby training to help eight to 12-year-old students with obesity issues improve their physical fitness and establish good exercise habits. The training programme is being coordinated by a research team from the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the University of Macau, who use data analysis to evaluate students’ progress against a range of parameters.
