Pillar Sports is proud to announce the renewal of our partnership with Hong Kong City Rugby Club, continuing a collaboration built on trust, preparation, and shared goals since 2019. Over the years, our sports tape, kits, and protective gear have become a vital part of City Rugby’s training and match-day routines, helping keep athletes “strapped and ready” throughout every season.
This renewal comes at an exciting time for the club. Preparation defines champions long before the first whistle blows, and City Rugby is expanding its footprint with not just one but two men’s teams as it enters a new chapter.
