The Story

Not a pitch.
A proof point.

All Blacks inaugural match
June 5, 2026

On June 5, 2026, the HKPC All Blacks took the floor against the RHPC Hookers in our inaugural match. We won. The bar buzzed. The Botanist signed on as the first official sponsor — and the inaugural Botanist All Black cocktail launched the same night.

Club vs. club, borough vs. borough — that's how the All Blacks play it. Year 1 is New York.
