Dear French Dragons players, FD Legends and others,
Welcome to : www.frenchdragons.com & www.footballforlife.hk
We have collected over the years so many photos, videos, newspaper articles that we felt it was really important to share all of it with our friends in Hong Kong but also overseas. This site will help you to check our latest updated league results & standings, actual photos and photos from the past, where all FD Legends are now located, or simply email us in order to keep in touch. If you feel that something is missing or we have forgotten someone, by all means, email us any information which will make this site even more enjoyable.
A bit of FD history : The Dragons (French Sports Club) as they were called in 1991, was created by a few French guys interested to establish a Club with many activities such as Football, Rugby, Dragon Boats & others. The main purpose was to offer the Hong Kong French Community a large selection of activities in order for them to enjoy their favorite sports. Unfortunately, only football survived and the French Dragons were the only team left in this Club.
New FD Era : In the summer of 1996, Fabrice Baron was the FD Manager taking over from Chris Power. With the help of Philippe Bru, the team was able to train once a week and recruit key players. The hard work paid off during the 1998 - 1999 season; FD winning the 2nd Division and promotion to 1st Division. From 1999 to 2005, FD have won not only everything there is to win in this league's highest Division, but what's really amazing is that it was achieved with so many players from so many nationalities. This team has always been about going forward and score as many goals as possible.
September 2006 :
The French Dragons FC has now joined the Football for Life Leagues. More details on : www.footballforlife.hk
Last but not least, I look forward to Welcome and encourage all new FD players but mainly ask you all to help our club continue to move forward.
See you on the pitch ! Yours in Football. Philippe Bru FD Doctor
