The move calls attention to a lack of awareness surrounding resources and welfare for wheelchair athletes in Hong Kong. Ajmal Samuel is a passionate wheelchair athlete and a former Pakistani soldier, who sustained a permanent spinal injury whilst fighting in the Indian-Pakistani Conflict in the 1980s. Samuel is unhappy about the time arrangements of this year’s wheelchair race, which automatically disqualified any racer who was unable to complete the first 11 kilometres in 40 minutes. Out of the six participants, only one managed to finish the race. “When I started talking about it five years ago, the idea was to make it an inclusive race,” says Samuel. “The time limit is very unrealistic, so only a few professional athletes are allowed to finish the course.” William Chu Yun-ming participated in the 3 kilometer wheelchair race. He started training at the Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground every Tuesday and Friday six months before the race. However, he experienced much inconvenience and often felt he was competing for track space with other members of the public.
“Other people complained that it was very dangerous to run alongside the wheelchair athletes, in case they got hurt by the wheelchairs,” says Chu. “As a result, I would only train on the two innermost tracks.” The shortage of facilities and training space is made worse for most amateur wheelchair athletes as resources are focused on the professional disabled athletes in certain sports such as fencing and table tennis. Whilst professional athletes receive monthly subsidies and training expenses, average wheelchair athletes in other fields are left with little resources and support. During Varsity’s visit to a training session of a wheelchair basketball team at Kai Tak East Sports Ground, none of the basketball players had their own game wheelchair. Chung Cheuk Ping has been playing with the team for three years, and he hopes to get his own game wheelchair. “Since I am without a [game] wheelchair, it really hinders my performance.” However, this may be just a dream for Chung.
