In its role as the Government’s elite sport training systems delivery agent, the HKSI is responsible for providing a high quality training environment and support services for high performance athletes with the aim of grooming athletes to achieve good results at international sporting events. Under the HKSAR Government's Elite Vote Support Scheme (EVSS), achievements of both senior and junior athletes at major international competitions will be used as the selection criterion to identify high performance sports to be supported by the HKSI for a period of four years. Review will be conducted every two years which is aligned with the Olympic Games and Asian Games cycles, to provide stable support for sports within the four-year support cycle.
