Hung Cheuk Kiu is a Hong Kong women's handball player who plays as a goalkeeper. She began as a basketball player and was spotted for handball by a teacher at secondary school, switching to the sport at the teacher's prompting at the age of 14 and continuing ever since to become a member of the Hong Kong representative team. She was part of the Hong Kong, China delegation for women's handball at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou (2023) and was named in the squad lists for the 15th National Games in 2025 and the 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya in 2026. Ahead of the 2025 National Games she said that, beyond her love of the game, handball had taught her how to juggle different tasks, to seek out new things on her own and to keep pushing herself; she would work to 'guard Hong Kong's last line of defence' and asked the public to support the Hong Kong women's team. A university student at the time, she hoped to become a physical education teacher and to promote handball while teaching students diligence and self-discipline. As Hong Kong's women's team is amateur, players arrange their own training around studies or work; Hung is one of those balancing university and representative duty.
