SUMMARY:Sitting Light Volleyball Booth to Promote Inclusion at Hong Kong Paralympic Day 2023
DESCRIPTION:Hong Kong Paralympic Day 2023 was held on 23 July\, 2023\, organised by the Hong Kong Paralympic Committee. It was an event full of various para sports trials\, performances and sharing sessions by athletes. Our department was very delighted to be part of it and to host the booth of sitting light volleyball in order to promote this sport. Since 2015\, Dr. Leung Ka Man and her team have been working on sitting light volleyball related research. At first\, the team focused on how light volleyball could improve the wellbeing of older adults\, later on they tried to adapt light volleyball to fit the needs of people with physical disabilities. Sitting light volleyball was then invented in 2018. The team has been working on the research and promotion of this new sport ever since. Apart from organising competitions\, being part of the Paralympic Day is also a valuable opportunity to reach out to more people.  The team designed a game to promote sitting light volleyball in an interactive way. Participants had the chance to strike the light volleyball and answer questions. The booth was really popular and successful. We believe that it is a good way to promote not only this sport but also social inclusion.\n \n\n \n\n

SUMMARY:Dr. Leung Ka-man Receives the President’s Award in Knowledge Transfer
DESCRIPTION:Third from the right: Dr Leung Ka Man\n	        \n\nThe President’s Awards for Outstanding Performance in Teaching\, Research\, Knowledge Transfer and Administrative Services 2022/23 recognise and honour staff members for their contributions and achievements. The Department of Health & Physical Education is delighted that Dr. LEUNG Ka Man\, Carman\, Assistant Professor\, has received Individual Award in Knowledge Transfer in the university by translating University-owned knowledge and expertise into economics or social improvements that benefit the community as a whole.  Dr. Leung joined the university three years ago and has been actively applying her research projects in knowledge transfer in the community. Her projects include an intervention study and promotion on light volleyball among 3\,500 older adults in Hong Kong and mainland China (supported by the Research Impact Fund\, HK$7.4million) through train-the-trainer workshops\, light volleyball classes with teaching aids\, and light volleyball competitions.  Dr. Leung has also gone further in the Sitting Light Volleyball (SLVB) innovation\, a newly adapted physical activity\, which has successfully reached and benefited people with physical disabilities. To prevent para-athletes’ injury while playing sports in a seated position\, Dr. Leung and her team invented “A Garment for Sports or Activities”\, which a patent application was filed in Hong Kong and Mainland China\, in 2022 and 2023 respectively. This garment can provide para-athletes with a safe sports apparel option for everyday use.
