The 15th National Games' Rugby Sevens tournament will take place at Kai Tak Sports Park Stadium in Hong Kong from November 12 to 14. Fast-paced, high-energy, and packed with cheering spectators — but how does the Sports Park operate so smoothly amid all this excitement? John Sharkey, CEO of Kai Tak Sports Park, leads his team to ensure cohesion and integration remain top priorities.

"Is there a smile on our audience's face?" he asks. "The most important thing is to keep observing people's faces. If they're smiling, we know we're getting it right."

From meticulous planning to real-time adjustments, the team continually refines every detail. By coordinating venue operations, crowd flow, and city logistics, they provide a seamless experience from start to finish. Behind the passion of Rugby Sevens lies a story of operation, coordination, and dedication — a Hong Kong chapter of the National Games in full swing.
