Gers To Compete In Hong Kong Soccer Sevens

RANGERS Under-19s will once again compete in the Hong Kong Football Club Soccer Sevens this year, which begins on Saturday morning.

The young side were crowned champions of the CAS Elite League last week and will now conclude the campaign by pitting their wits in the annual seven-a-side tournament in Asia.

They have been regulars at the tournament over the years, most recently making a quarter-final run in the Main Cup two years ago in a group which included FIFA World Cup-bound Findlay Curtis.

This time around, Rangers have been drawn into a group consisting of Yokohama F. Marinos of Japan and both BC Rangers and Yau Yee League Select of Hong Kong.

All group stage matches will take place on Saturday, with the knockout phase of the Main Cup, Main Shield and Main Plate competitions, which is determined by placings in the group phase, being played on Sunday.

Each game has two seven-minute halves with a one-minute half-time break, while the final is ten minutes each half.

Matches will be broadcast live on the HKFC Soccer Sevens YouTube channel here.
