Career
Salom Yiu started his career after first watching the Hong Kong Sevens from the spectator stands and then doing more research on the sport.[1] He was a member of the Hong Kong Rugby Sevens team at the 2009 East Asian Games. He was a Silver medal winner at both the 2009 East Asian Games and the 2010 Asian Games, falling both times to Japan.[2] He became a full-time professional when Rugby Sevens became the first team sport admitted to the Hong Kong Sports Institute in April 2013.[3]
