Introduction

The Hong Kong Schools Sports Federation (HKSSF), formally inaugurated on 1 September 1997, as an amalgamated body of the 3 former schools sports organizations and currently, it has been registered as a company limited with a charitable status.  HKSSF the overall controlling body of school sports in Hong Kong is administered by the Board with the Secondary School Sports Council and Primary School Sports Council looking after their respective secondary and primary sports programmes and related issues, and the External School Sports Committee taking care of the Jing Ying, Inter-port as well as international school sports competitions.

In the 2003 – 2004 season, there was over 98% a total number of 1,223 primary and secondary schools registered as members of the Federation.  Students competed in twenty-one secondary and twelve primary inter-school competitions organized by the Federation throughout the year.

Over the years we have established a feeder system (including selection and training) with most of the national sports associations (NSAs).  It provides our student athletes the quality training required for them to achieve higher performance in the All China Secondary School Students Games, inter-port and other international competitions.  In addition, those potential athletes will be able to feed to the NSAs, to prepare them for higher level of competitions in future.
