After 35 years in uniform, Tang King-shing is showing there’s no off-duty mindset when it comes to community. His tenure as police commander at Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport — once hailed as one of the world’s most challenging runways — taught him the art of crisis management under pressure.
Now, Tang applies those leadership skills at Kai Tak Sports Park, a state-of-the-art complex designed to be Hong Kong’s new hub for sports and culture. From youth leagues to senior wellness programs, he’s focused on creating inclusive experiences that bring people together across generations.
Under his guidance, the park has rolled out free coaching clinics, community tournaments, and pop-up events that have already attracted thousands of participants. His approach fuses disciplined planning with a passion for play, turning every sporting event into a chance for personal growth and social connection.
Looking ahead, Tang King-shing’s vision extends beyond the stadium: he wants to use sport as a tool for resilience, healthy living, and global exchange. As young athletes and digital nomads roam the city in search of their next adventure, he’s ensuring that sport at Kai Tak Sports Park is accessible, memorable, and inspiring.
