Description

For those unfamiliar with the sport, dragon boating simply put, is a 40' boat of 20 paddlers, a drummer and a steers person paddling to cross the finish faster than their competition. It's a team sport in its purest form that encompasses the elements of power, speed, synchronization and endurance.

With its beginnings in Southern China, dragon boating today is the world's fastest growing international team water sport. Each year, race festivals are held around the world in Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe and the United States.

The appeal of dragon boating is mainly attributed to the sport’s ability to accommodate a wide spectrum of skill levels ranging from novice to competitive. At the novice and recreational level, teams often form as a means of social outlet, team building and an alternative means of exercise.

For the spectator, the true display of the sport’s intensity and skill is witnessed in the competitive ranks. Competitive paddlers rigorously train to condition themselves in the areas of strength, endurance, paddling technique, mental focus and most importantly timing. Teams with well conditioned paddlers in near perfect synch, fueled by a strong competitive spirit, provide an impressive display of dragon boats exploding through the water. At this level, dragon boat racing becomes a sport of inches and an exciting event for its spectators.

We are a competitive and recreational club with several divisions, to include a premier mixed (co-ed) team and an all wome
