the weekend of 16th and 17th July.
The 203 teams were drawn into 29 groups of 7 teams, who played in round-robin format. The 48 top-ranked teams from the group stage proceeded to a 6-tier knockout stage, with a further 16 teams being awarded consolation prizes. The Club’s Lawn Bowls Section entered 13 teams in the competition. Upon the conclusion of the group stage, HKFC had 3 teams entering the 1st tier Cup competition, one team entering the 4th tier Knife competition and two teams qualified for consolation prizes.
