Societe Generale has a long-standing history of supporting rugby. We have been sponsoring Valley Rugby Football Club (Valley RFC), one of Hong Kong’s largest sports clubs and leading rugby teams, since 2014. 

Founded in 1975 and named because of its home in Happy Valley, the Club is today, one of the most successful sports clubs in Hong Kong, with rugby, hockey and netball teams. In addition, Valley RFC has an academy which offers coaching and promotes sport in schools and the community. Through its affiliate Valley Fort RFC, Valley RFC also has the largest contingent of rugby-playing children in Asia, with some 800 boys and girls from ages 4 to 18 wearing the Valley Fort shirt every weekend.

Running out in Black and Red, the Valley RFC teams are training and playing at the Happy Valley stadium on Pitch 6.
