Alumni
The team, consisting of young Chinese men, courted some controversy in the Hong Kong media, when they were shown naked on camera in a Hong Kong film, City Without Baseball, with their private parts fully exposed in several scenes. One of the team's main players, Ron Heung Tze-Chun, who was also the main character in the film, has gone on to become a Hong Kong film actor.
Venues

- Lion Rock Park Baseball Field - located to the left of the south end of Lion Rock Tunnel and south side of the larger Lion Rock Country Park, it is an alternate baseball venue for the team[3]
