袁卡爾

English

Yuen Ka Yi is a Hong Kong handball coach who has served within the coaching set-up of Hong Kong, China representative handball teams. He was named among the coaches of the Hong Kong, China handball entry at the 2nd National Youth Games in 2019 (where the managers were Wong To and Yeung Hoi Cheung and the other coach Yiu Hei Yan), and was a member of the coaching staff of the Hong Kong, China handball delegation at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou (2023). In 2025 he coached the Hong Kong, China women's representative handball team at the 15th National Games, jointly hosted by Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau, with the women's tournament played in the mainland zone and Hong Kong grouped with strong sides such as Shandong and Anhui. After the opening matches he explained that the first two games were mainly about letting the players feel the contact, power and speed of facing strong opponents, that over two days the team had tried a number of tactics to find breakthroughs and create space, and that defensive execution had been worked on; he felt the side had performed well and improved on their previous meetings with such teams at the national championship. According to mainland media reports he urged his players to keep their love of the game and to chase their dreams, and frequently told them 'never give up', a message team captain Lee Man Nga said drove the side to fight for every ball. As Hong Kong's teams are amateur and training time is limited, the coaching role involves quickly knitting together a squad; Yuen is also noted for attending to players' morale. Details of his personal background and coaching qualifications are limited in public sources.
