#GGHK2022 Partner: The Hong Kong Sailing Federation (HKSF)

By the deep blue sea, lies the city of Hong Kong, through which we hope the Gay Games will finally be entering Asia for the first time in their gaming history. The Gay Games have introduced the notion of unity on an international platform that reaches beyond all bounds of ethnicity, culture, sex, age and sexual preference. While Hong Kong has been bidding to host the Gay Games in 2022, the Hong Kong Sailing Federation(HKSF) stands ardently at its back. Both GGHK2022 and HKSF are intertwined due to the similarity in their interests and objectives.

As the Gay Games includes some adventures at sea, it’s important to make sure that everything goes according to the international guidelines; that’s where HKSF steps in.  As a proud partner, HKSF is affiliated to the World Sailing (ISAF), the Asian Sailing Asian Federation (ASAF) and the Sports Federation & Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China (SF&OC). Also, it entertains the interests of all the sailors in Hong Kong and recreational boating and yachting circles. Moreover, the Hong Kong Sailing Federation always decides and determines the eligibility and selection of participants and sailors representing in international sporting events like Olympic Games, Asian Games and now, the Gay Games.

You may have noticed that the logo of GGHK2022 includes a sail boat. The junk boat is iconic in China and in the region. The Gay Games Hong Kong 2022 logo symbolizes this sail boat with the colors of the LGBT+ community sailing through as one towards acceptance, love, freedom and diversity. It celebrates our life as part of the human race.  We would like to take you on a journey to enjoy Hong Kong! Come and sail together with us through Unity in Diversity.
