We are delighted to share the extraordinary success of Leung Yu Hong, a Year 2 student in our BA (Hons) in English and Applied Linguistics programme. He secured the gold medal in the Men’s Sanda 60kg category at the AUSF 1st Asian University Wushu Championship in Harbin, China, from 19-22 June, which brought 87 athletes from 12 Asian countries and regions together.
Yu Hong humbly expressed his gratitude for this accomplishment, "PolyU supports athletic careers and maintains a flexible balance between academics and athletics. Assisting athletes in bringing honour to Hong Kong and striving for excellence. I’m able to focus entirely on the competition when I compete. The hybrid learning mode makes my study more flexible and better time management."
Including Yu Hong, three PolyU Wushu athletes achieved one gold, two silver, and one bronze medal at the Championship.
Let us come together to celebrate the outstanding accomplishments of these athletes and eagerly anticipate their continued success in the days ahead. Click HERE to learn more.
