Yu Jing (born 22 September 1983) is a Chinese ice sledge hockey player.
At the 2022 Winter Paralympics, Yu became the third female para ice hockey player at the Winter Paralympic Games after Norwegians Britt Mjaasund Øyen and Lena Schrøder and the first Chinese woman to do so.[1][2] She was also a member of China's bronze medal-winning team in para ice hockey at the 2022 Winter Paralympics, thus becoming the second woman to win a Paralympic medal in this sport.[3]
