The Hong Kong lacrosse association (HKLA) hosted Thailand's men national lacrosse team under the floodlights and the stars beneath the Hong Kong sky, on 3 July 2010. It was a historic night, for it was the first ever international game for the Thailand lacrosse team, and the first of a two game series between both nations.

At the end of the first quarter Team Thailand lead 5-1. Then Hong Kong gathered themself, and start their offensive productivity, with two goals in the second quarter, at the half Thailand lead Hong Kong 6-3. Hong Kong lead by coach Louis Hou turned up the heat in the third quarter, with two additional goals (and three more in the 4th) to get within a shouting distance of the Thailand's lead. Thailand responded with 4 more goals in the second half, on top of the stellar defense not allowing any goals during Hong Kong's man up opportunities. One of the game highlight was the goaltending by Thailand's starting goalie Peem Chatikavanit, who played the entire 80 minutes of the game. The coordinated effort on riding and clearing by the midfield unit, helped put the final nailed in the coffin for Hong Kong's fate. The final scored after 80 minutes of lacrosse, Thailand edged Hong Kong 10-8.

Ryan Rabidou the coach of Thailand lacrosse team said after the game " A terrific game, and a great first win for Thailand. I couldn't be happier for our team, especially our defense who played extremely well against a very strong, and experience Hong Kong offense." he added "I would like to thanks coach Hou and the HKLA for their hospitality, and giving us an opportunity to play with their team". It was an emotional night for the players, and the fans as they understood the significant of the game.

The clinic focused on teaching the participants some efficient line drills and reaction oriented warm-ups. The clinic also concentrated on off-ball positioning of attacking players and team defence. On the final day, 6 vs 6 games were held and participants could test their newly learned tactics and skills against each other.
