Chan Cheuk Kwong (Chinese: 陳卓光; Cantonese Yale: Chàn Cheukgwōng ; born 5 December 1984 in Hong Kong), is a Hong Kong footballer who is currently playing for Hong Kong First Division League club Hoi King.

He is renowned for his long throw-in ability, often being compared with former Stoke City midfielder Rory Delap.[1]

Club career[]

Sham Shui Po[]

Chan Cheuk Kwong started his football career in Sham Shui Po, competing in the third-tier league. In 3 seasons, he only featured 9 matches for the club, and was released after the 2007–08 season as the club promoted their full youth team to first team.

Five-One-Seven[]

He then followed former Sham Shui Po head coach Fung Hoi Man and joined another Third Division club . However, since his full-time job was a fireman, he only played 2 matches for the team and left the team after a season.

Southern[]

He once again followed Fung Hoi Man and joined fellow Third Division club Southern. He helped the club gain promotion to second-tier league by scoring two goals in nine matches. His long throw-ins were also a key to success.

He became a key member for Southern after the club was promoted. He was a regular starting XI and eventually helped the club promote to the Hong Kong First Division for the first time in club history in 2011–12 season.

As he is a fireman off the football pitch, he could not attend every training session.[2] As a result, his role in the club was changed to super sub. He is often substituted in the second half for long throw ins.

Hoi King[]

Having joined Hoi King for the 2017–18 First Division season, head coach Fung Hoi Man confirmed on 7 June 2018 that Chan would be retained by the club for their 2018–19 Hong Kong Premier League campaign.[3]
