Club career

Tai Po

Chiu joined Tai Po youth system and was promoted to the first team in the 2010–11 season, serving as the backup of Pang Tsz Kin.

Hong Kong Sapling

In the 2011–12 season, as Mutual refused to promote to the top-tier division, a team of youth players formed Hong Kong Sapling. Chiu was loaned to the team and originally served as a backup of Tsang Man Fai. However, due to the departure of Tsang Man Fai, he became the first-choice goalkeeper. He returned to Tai Po after the season.

Southern

Chiu joined newly promoted First Division club Southern for an undisclosed fee.

International career

On 19 June 2012, Chiu was called up into the final squad for the 2013 AFC U-22 Asian Cup qualification in Laos.^[2] However, he did not feature any matches as Tsang Man Fai played every match.

On 21 June 2013, Chiu was again chosen into the training squad for the 2013 East Asian Games.^[3]
