The Hong Kong gymnastics team will participate in the upcoming Asian Games in Nagoya, featuring five female and three male athletes. Li Ting-huen, a debutant in both rhythmic gymnastics and the Asian Games, and 18-year-old Ng Ka-ki, who will compete in the men's vault event, are among the athletes. Li expressed excitement about representing Hong Kong for the first time in rhythmic gymnastics and aims to perform at her peak during the Games.
Ng, who returned from a two-month training period in Beijing, emphasized the value of competing against world-class gymnasts and his focus on enjoying the experience. Head coach Sergiy Agafontsev assured that the team is ready to demonstrate their best at the Games, urging athletes to trust their preparation, stay composed, and give their best performance.
Agafontsev also hoped that spectators would focus on the athletes' preparation and efforts rather than the results. Gymnastics competitions at the Nagoya Asian Games are scheduled to commence on Monday.
