Dragon Boat Open Days
Paddling a dragon boat is a fun, intensely exciting experience! Local clubs run numerous Open Days which are the perfect way to see if it's for you.
We'll bring expert instructors, life-jackets and paddles - you just need to bring a change of clothes because you're probably going to get wet! On the boat, wear things you can easily swim in. So:
NO jeans, long pants, tracksuit tops or fleece jackets.
DO WEAR shorts, thermals (if it is cold) and/or a light wind jacket (if it is windy).
Bare feet or any footwear that you don't mind to get wet is fine. Don't wear expensive sunglasses or jewelry - just in case it falls in the water.
Club members will be happy to answer any questions you might have about joining a team (no pressure!). Various teams are available including corporate, mixed, women, masters, and breast cancer survivors.
