各位親切的朋友、企業義工、學校老師、家長、同學：

大家好！今天很高興出席由「親切」主辦的「香港共融健球盃」，與大家一同為所有參加者加油打氣，感受健球比賽的刺激和樂趣。

運動競技不單只對身心健康有益處，也能夠連繫不同群體，消除彼此的隔閡，散播共融的種子。自2020年親切舉辦第一屆香港共融健球盃以來，社會上越來越多人開始認識並參與健球運動。今天參賽的隊伍由特殊學校的學生，以及來自不同企業的義工組成。透過健球比賽和訓練，同學們能夠建立自信，學習團隊合作精神，而企業團隊則能夠深化對多元共融的理解。更重要的是，所有參加者都能夠在合作中，領略共融的真諦，學會尊重彼此的差異，發掘每個人的優點，以行動實踐傷健共融，並於日後把這些價值傳播至社會不同角落。

各位參賽選手，我希望你們能夠盡情享受今天的比賽，發揮團隊和體育精神，不論最終比賽輸贏，大家都已經是支持平等共融的贏家。

最後，我祝願今天的活動順利舉行，並祝各位身體健康、生活愉快。多謝！

I would now like to say a few words in English.

I’m so excited to be here with you all today to experience the thrill and joy of kin-ball! Since TREATS organised this competition for the first time back in 2020, Kin-ball has gained popularity in the community with a growing number of people participating in this inclusive sport. Not only is Kin-ball exciting to watch, its unique format also encourages players with different abilities to work together and rely on each other’s strengths. It’s a sport that truly showcases the beauty of inclusion and teaches us what we can achieve when we celebrate our differences and work together. Whether you are a player or a spectator, I hope today’s competition will inspire you to continue spreading the values of equality and inclusion to those around you, transforming our city into a place where people of all abilities can thrive.

Good luck to all the teams, and I wish you all a wonderful day. Omnikin!
