張焯傑

English

Cheung Cheuk Kit (張焯傑) is a Hong Kong judo coach closely associated with the local Tin Long Judo Club, where he has trained Hong Kong judoka over many years. He is active in the local judo community as a coach and has travelled with Hong Kong, China delegations on several occasions. In 2019 he was appointed by the Hong Kong, China Judo Association as a coach, working alongside Law Lai Wa with the team at the 2nd National Youth Games in Shanxi to guide Hong Kong's young athletes; that event is a major youth multi-sport games on the mainland in which Hong Kong also takes part. He has since served as a coach for the Hong Kong, China judo team at events including the East Asian Youth Games and the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou in 2023, preparing tactics and giving mat-side guidance. Compared with competitors, coaches work largely behind the scenes and often appear only in the coach column of a delegation list. With limited resources, Hong Kong judo coaches juggle daily training with helping the federation run local sessions and talent identification, as well as the technical and psychological preparation of competition. Hong Kong judo coaches are usually experienced club coaches or former athletes, and Cheung is one of them. His birth year, competitive record and years of teaching at his club are not well documented.
