The turf pitch and 100m 5-lane track at Causeway Bay Sports Ground remain closed through July 21, 2026, for turf maintenance, with full access expected to return shortly after that date.

The 2.4-hectare venue, opened in May 1983 and located next to Hong Kong Central Library, serves as the main site for track and field, football and rugby in the district. Its 95m by 64m grass pitch, 400m jogging track and six tennis courts support regular use by local clubs and schools once the current work finishes.

Community League Schedule

SCAA Causeway Bay RFC, founded in 1988 and based at nearby So Kon Po Recreation Ground, fields teams in the HK Community League. Training sessions for men’s sides from Championship to development level take place at Causeway Bay Sports Ground on Wednesdays. The same ground hosted the Hong Kong Boys Youth Rugby 7s U18s match between Valley Fort and HKFC on March 22, 2026.

Other facilities at the sports ground stay open daily from 7am to 11pm, except the grass pitch which closes every Thursday for routine upkeep. The South China Athletic Association clubhouse at 88 Caroline Hill Road offers additional multi-sport options including badminton and squash for members paying the HK$200 annual fee.

Access After July 21

Users planning bookings for football, rugby or athletics should confirm availability directly with the Leisure and Cultural Services Department once the maintenance period concludes. Olympic House at 1 Stadium Path in So Kon Po continues to coordinate district associations that draw on these venues for youth and adult programs.
