'This year is a turning point for my sports career,' says Ka-ho. 'I haven't participated in any large-scale competitions ... but my former PE teacher, Tam Suet-fong, suggested that I apply for the Hong Kong team selection for the All China Secondary Schools Students' Games. I listened to her, but I thought I only had a slim chance. It was quite surprising that I stood out among hundreds of students. I really need to thank Miss Tam, she changed my goals for the sport, and now I can aim higher.
