English

Wai Chiu-fai (Chinese: 韋昭暉, also known as Zia) is a Hong Kong bridge player and coach. He was active in domestic competition well before his coaching career, appearing among the entrants of the 2016 Hong Kong Inter-City Bridge Championships, run by the Hong Kong Contract Bridge Association. In 2022 he was appointed coach of the Hong Kong, China bridge team for the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, and he has appeared at a Hong Kong Shue Yan University information day in that capacity, speaking to students about promoting and training in the game alongside a Hong Kong representative from the World Youth Championships and the principal of a bridge academy. Bridge first became an Asian Games medal sport at Jakarta 2018, and Hong Kong has fielded men's, women's and mixed teams, supported by coaches and team officials. A game of logic, memory and partnership understanding, bridge in Hong Kong is fostered by the Hong Kong Contract Bridge Association, which runs the long-standing Inter-City Bridge Championships. Public information on Hong Kong's bridge players and coaches is limited, so details of Wai's background, playing record and coaching tenure remain to be documented.
