HKU Lee Shau Kee Top Athletes Scholarship
Over the years, Hong Kong athletes have thrived and flourished on the world stage, achieving spectacular success and displaying exceptional grit and resilience at a number of international sporting events. In order to support our young athletes' pursuits of both sports and academic excellence, the Lee Shau Kee Foundation made a generous donation of HK$7.2 million to the University of Hong Kong (HKU) in 2022 for the establishment of the “HKU Lee Shau Kee Top Athletes Scholarship”. For a period of three years, the scholarship will award HK$400,000 to each of the outstanding athletes admitted to HKU through the “Top Athletes Direct Admission Scheme”.
Coleman Wong (tennis), Lawrence Ng (fencing), Nicholas Choi (fencing), Sandy Choi (sailing), Russell Williams Aylsworth (sailing) and Adrian Yung (Alpine skiing) were 2022's awardees.
Dr Lee Ka Shing, Martin, Chairman of the Group, said: “Through the 'HKU Lee Shau Kee Top Athletes Scholarship', I hope to do my part to support our top sporting talents and motivate them to pursue their dreams and maintain a good balance between sports and academics. It is my hope that the business sector and the broader society in Hong Kong will go a step further in supporting our local athletes so that they will get to shine on the international sporting stage and bring home more glory. ”
