Twelve CUHK elite student athletes joined a visiting tour organized by the Physical Education Unit of CUHK from 11- 15 August to cheer for China at the Beijing Olympic Games. The delegation watched the games and visited some of the Olympic sports facilities. Lee Ka-ming, a Hong Kong volleyball representative in the 2006 Doha Asian Games, remarked, ‘As Chinese athletes, we find it particularly meaningful to be able to witness the Olympic Games on our home soil. We watched the beach volleyball and hockey events, and the emotion of the audience was overwhelming. Whenever the Chinese team entered the stadium, the audience would applaud loudly and long, and all of us would join the crowd in chanting ’’Go, China!‘’’. After years of anticipation, China finally became host of the Olympic Games. The five-day tour was a chance of a lifetime for the student athletes who were profoundly inspired by the Chinese contestants. Chiu Tsz-wang, a Hong Kong representative of the 2008 1st Asian University Handball Championship, said, ‘We look up to them as models. After witnessing their achievements, we will practise harder, and strive to excel in our own fields. We hope to achieve better results in the future and make the University proud.’ Back in Hong Kong, over 12,000 people visited CUHK campus on 16 August to participate in the ‘CUHK Carnival – In Support of the Olympic Spirit’ which was aimed at adding fun to the Beijing 2008 Olympic Equestrian Events in Hong Kong, and also celebrating the 45th anniversary of the University. The carnival, which offered a wide array of programmes catering to different interests, proved to be a fun-filled event for the whole family. Visitors were also interested in learning about the cultural heritage and scientific achievements of the University. The carnival showcased the University’s commitment to promoting the Olympics, international friendship and culture, in line with the three key themes of the Beijing Olympics, namely, ‘High-tech Olympics, Green Olympics, People’s Olympics’. It featured a variety of sports-related activities and invited outstanding sportsmen among CUHK graduates to share their experiences. They included swimmers Ms. Caroline Chiu and Mr. Philip Yee, athlete Mr. Lai Ka-pun, triathlon athlete Mr. Derwin Chan and badminton athlete Mr. Yuen Yuen-kin.
