Hong Kong Football Club was founded in 1886 by Sir
James Haldane Lockhart, following a meeting held at the Victoria Recreation Gymnasium on 12 February 1886. The club played its first
rugby union match on 16 February 1886, followed by its first
association football match on 16 March 1886 against the
Royal Engineers. In 1995, as part of the Happy Valley Racecourse redevelopment, the club moved into a new 64,000 square metre facility. The main building is located outside the race track, while the sports pitches are situated within the infield. In 2011, HKFC celebrated its 125th anniversary.
