What does representing China at the Asia Pacific Cup 2026 mean to you?
To me, playing for China means bridging a gap between my favourite sport and my family. Growing up as a first-generation migrant in Sydney, I couldn’t find many athletes from my culture, and I’m honoured to contribute to the growing Asian touch community in Australia.
