Qiu Chen (Chinese: 邱晨; pinyin: Qiū Chén; born 1 June 1963)[1] is a Chinese former basketball player who competed in the 1984 Summer Olympics.[2]

In 1986, she moved to Australia after meeting Jenny Cheesman and played for the Canberra Capitals in 1988, under the name "Qui Chen." She had chosen to move to Australia because of her desire to learn the English language.[3]
