19 Anniversary, bc magazine
September 2013 marks the 19th Anniversary of the launch of bc magazine – what an amazing experience it has been – highs, lows, depths of despair, top of the world… Massive thanks are owed to far too many people for me to list individual contributors for fear of missing out someone – but without Tom Hallahan and Mark Fitzsimons, bc might never have made it to your hands. A big thank to all the advertisers who made bc possible. And a big thank you to you the readers – it’s a really rather wonderful emotion to watch people read and enjoy a magazine you’ve been a part of creating… Thank you!
Hong Kong 7s 2013 – Saturday
Hong Kong 7s 2013 – Saturday
A day of legends and abject failure. Amidst a great day of rugby, with upsets a plenty the performance of England had many in the crowd hiding behind their beer mugs as they drowned their disappointment. In a not too well kept secret The Beach Boys performed a 30 minute set at lunchtime which had the stadium singing along to classic hits.
Saturday’s true legend bestrode the HK Stadium pitch later in the day as Waisale Serevi, a spring in his stride, was inducted into the Rugby Hall of Fame.

Hong Kong Tens @ HK Football Club – 20-21 March 2013
At the seventh attempt the Penguins finally won the Hong Kong Tens in dramatic fashion as a pulsating final against Samurai was decided in the last minute when Australian winger Richard Hooper outsprinted the Samurai defence to touch down a last-minute grubber kick from England Sevens scrumhalf James Lightfoot-Brown, who had sprinted over 50 metres along the right touchline after making a break from a scrum near his own 22. www.hongkongtens.com
