The Official Merchandise Shop for the Cathay Pacific/Credit Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2007 celebrated its grand opening
on Thursday at Shop B11 – 12, The Landmark in Central, Hong Kong.
The shop was christened with a fashion shoot featuring five members of the recently announced Hong Kong Rugby Football
Union Sevens training squad including Hong Kong Sevens 2006 squad members Andy Yuen and Kenzo Pannell and three
hopeful debutants for the Hong Kong Sevens 2007: Colin Bisley, Nick Hurrell and Fan Shun Kei.
Also attending
the shop's opening were Mr Allan Payne, Executive Director of the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union; Mr Rod
Mason, Tournament Operations Director of the Cathay Pacific/Credit Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2007 and Mr Robert Perkins,
Managing Director of Kukri Sports Limited.
This year’s line of Official Hong Kong Sevens is the largest ever produced with over 50 items across a full range of stylish and
sporty gear for men, women and children. This year’s Official Merchandise is again being manufactured by Hong Kong Rugby
Football Union kit sponsor Kukri Sports.
Among the most eagerly anticipated items on offer in the Hong Kong Sevens merchandise range is the official event jersey, which
this year is a classic harlequin rugby jersey with a surprising twist: an image of the famous Hong Kong Stadium South Stand on
the back. Another bestselling item is the Hong Kong National Team Jersey which this year comes in men’s, women’s and
children’s sizes in both the official (blue) and alternate (red) versions. After completely selling out of all women’s items at last
year’s Hong Kong Sevens, the 2007 product range features an expanded number of items for women.
The Official Hong Kong Sevens merchandise can be purchased at the shop or ordered from the official Cathay Pacific/Credit
Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2007 website. It is also available for sale from local sporting clubs: the Hong
Kong Football Club, the Hong Kong Cricket Club and the Kowloon Cricket Club as well as at the Hong Kong International Airport
and Royal Sporting House outlets in Times Square, Cityplaza, Tsimshatsui, Festival Walk and
Shatin.
The Cathay Pacific/Credit Suisse Hong Kong Sevens 2006 will be held at the Hong Kong Stadium from March 30 to 1 April, 2007.
