To Kwa Wan Sports Centre, Sports center in To Kwa Wan, Hong Kong.
To Kwa Wan Sports Centre is a multi-purpose indoor sports hall at 66 Ha Heung Road, inside the To Kwa Wan Recreation Ground in Kowloon City District. It was the district's first sports centre built as a standalone building, designed by the Kwan Ng Wong architectural firm. Its main hall converts into eight badminton courts, two basketball courts or volleyball courts, alongside two multi-purpose rooms, two squash rooms and a fitness room.
The centre opened in 1987, during a period when Hong Kong was developing community recreation facilities across its densely populated urban districts. It was one of the early purpose-built sports centres in Kowloon City, built to serve the growing local population.
The centre's name comes from To Kwa Wan, the Kowloon City neighbourhood where it stands on Ha Heung Road inside To Kwa Wan Playground. It opened in 1987 as the district's first sports hall in a stand-alone building, and was called To Kwa Wan Indoor Games Hall until the name was changed in 2002 after the Public Health and Municipal Services Ordinance was amended.
The centre is on Ha Heung Road and easy to reach on foot from nearby streets and public transport stops. Some areas require advance booking, so it is worth checking availability before you arrive, especially for the courts.
The centre opened on 24 October 1987 together with To Kwa Wan Playground, and the opening ceremony was chaired by Poon Ping-wong, then chairman of the Urban Council's works committee. It was the first sports centre in Kowloon City District to occupy its own standalone building, designed by Kwan Ng Wong Architects & Engineers.
