Manchester City brought over 200 young people together for a community football festival in Hong Kong during the club's pre-season tour of Asia.

Participants came from a range of community organisations, including mixed-ability groups and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The event was led by City in the Community coaches.

Attendees rotated through three activity stations covering small-sided games and technical training focused on decision-making and teamwork. Off the pitch, participants joined classroom workshops on nutrition, sleep, hydration and exercise.

Ten first-team squad members attended throughout the day, joining participants in activities. Vitor Reis, Divin Mubama, Mahamadou Sangare, Xavier Parker, Jayden Heskey, Kaden Braithwaite, Matty Henderson-Hall, Jack Wint, Max Chabot and Floyd Samba were all present.

Club mascots Moonchester and Moonbeam also took part in activities with attendees.
