What is Dragon Boat Racing?

Dragon boating is a fun-filled, adrenaline pumping, water sports activity. Teams compete in Dragon Boats, which are large canoe-like vessels fitted with ornately carved dragon’s heads and tails.

Crews of up to 16 people sit in pairs and paddle to compete in races over distances of around 250m. Each boat has a drummer beating time to keep the paddlers in unison and a professional helmsperson in the stern to guide the boat.

Originating in ancient China, Dragon Boat Racing is now the fastest growing water sport in the world and a favourite among corporations for its team-building benefits.

Benefits of this event

Each individual Dragon Boat event in the series boasts a fun day out with several benefits including employee team building, networking, brand exposure, improving staff health and well-being & increasing morale. Medals will be awarded to the top 3 teams and there will be an award for each event winner.
