Dragon Boating does not come without it’s costs.
Competitive paddlers are looking at a cost of approximately $120 per regatta for regatta fees, travel and accommodation. Our team manager will organise group travel and accommodation to help keep costs low.
Although we provide paddles and PFDs, serious paddlers would be looking at getting their own. A good carbon fibre paddle will cost between $150 and $300, and a PFD can be purchased from between $50 and $150.
Being part of a local club is the first step on your pathway to success in competing at national and international level.
Applications for the Victorian State Team open mid season and successfull applicants will find themselves competing with the best in the state to take home gold against the other states at the annual Australian Dragon Boat Championships.
The Auroras are Australia’s elite paddlers, they train extremely hard and travel worldwide to compete at global dragon boating competitions. The Aurora’s crew is so large that it has more members than the Australian Olympic team.
