The clinic was held in the 5 cities of Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Guangzhou, Beijing and Kota Kinabalu in late 2013. The campaign selected youths who showed great promise for training with QPR. All 4 of the chosen athletes have been able to train with Chris Ramsey, Manager and Coach of QPR (middle), as well as received the opportunity to hit the pitch with the Queens Park Rangers.
