History

Ma On Shan was opened by Lau Wong-fat on 28 December 1999. During construction the completion date was seriously delayed due to contractor bankruptcy. Work was taken over by the Architectural Services Department in December 1997 who completed construction.[1]

Activities

Ma On Shan Sports Ground is designed for local sports use including schools and company sports days. When the venue is not booked, it is open to the public for jogging.

Due to the 2008 Olympics Equestrian event in Shatin, the Sports Institute's track and field athletes were given permission to train exclusively at Ma On Shan Sports Ground every day.[2]。

Facilities

Ma On Shan Sports Ground's design is simple and practical. The double deck grandstand is 150m long and can accommodate 1,387 spectators.

Beneath the grandstand are changing rooms and offices. There is an 11-a-side natural grass football field and 400m running track.

gollark: I know that.
gollark: Okay, so I seem to have autolost my autocrafting output. Again. Where is it going?
gollark: I'm mostly interested in relatively easy interop with lua and making my stuff less horribly unreliable.
gollark: So do you recommend that I use another one, then?
