Team Info

A crew of 20 paddlers, a steersperson and drummer, race over a 500-metre race course. Over the event weekend each team will have 3 timed heats (weather permitting). Practices will be held prior to the festival weekend. A dragon boat team (crew) consists of 25 members (20 paddlers, 1 drummer, 1 steerperson (to be provided by the festival), and 3 trained alternates). All racing is recreational, not requiring anyone to be an experienced dragon boater.

Dragon Boat racing is an extremely user friendly sport and anyone, young or old, at any fitness level can quickly adapt to, and develop a passion for the sport. Technique and synchronicity are the key elements to a successful dragon boat team.

Don't delay! Registration forms will be accepted on a first come, first serve basis.
