Two Up Front News - January 15, 2007

Hong Kong, January 15, 2007 - Two Up Front has underlined its status as Asia's premier rugby publishing and PR specialist by extending its agreement with the popular GFI HKFC Tens.

For the third year in a row, Two Up Front will produce the official souvenir programme and handle worldwide PR for the Hong Kong showpiece, widely acclaimed as the best tens tournament in the world.

"The GFI HKFC Tens continues to go from strength to strength and we are very happy to be playing a key role in the tournament's growth," said Two Up Front project director Simon Wait.

"Since joining the Tens organising team in 2005, we have overhauled the official souvenir programme so that it better reflects the standard of play on the pitch and the level of hospitality off it. In addition, our innovative PR campaigns have raised the tournament's profile throughout Asia and the rest of the world to the point where players and fans from all points of the globe take part."

The GFI HKFC Tens is a two-day feast of rugby featuring household-name players and a selection of club and invitational teams from all over the world. It is staged amid a festival atmosphere at Hong Kong Football Club, one of the best-equipped private sporting clubs in Asia.

This year's tournament, on March 28-29, will include the UK's best-known touring team, the Penguins, crack Fijian club Davetalevu and defending champions New Zealand Metro.
