張美娥

Cheung Mei Ngo is a Hong Kong women's handball player and a long-serving member and former captain of the Hong Kong, China women's representative team. She was part of the Hong Kong delegation for women's handball at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou (2023), where Hong Kong drew 26-26 with India in the group stage and Cheung led the scoring with seven goals, with Wong Yee Ting adding six. She was later named in the Hong Kong women's squad for the 15th National Games in 2025. In September 2026 she captained Hong Kong at the women's handball tournament of the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya. Seven teams contested the round-robin event, and Hong Kong opened against South Korea, seven-times Asian Games champions; Hong Kong trailed 8-24 at half-time and lost 16-48. Speaking afterwards, Cheung, visibly emotional, said that as amateurs playing at a major international event they often felt like also-rans, but that on court one should not be divided into amateur or professional, and she hoped the public would see that Hong Kong was not strong only in men's handball and that the women's team could take a big step forward, setting a target of finishing in the top four. A four-time Asian Games participant, she saw the side move from struggling against South Korea's defence to breaking through and creating clear scoring chances.
