Are you ready to unleash your inner dragon? Join our taster session to discover the thrilling world of our sport.

Welcome to the Worcester Dragon Boat Racing Club Taster Session!

Dragon boating is a dynamic and exhilarating water sport with roots in ancient Chinese culture. It involves teams of paddlers training and racing in long, narrow boats adorned with decorative dragon heads and tails, hence the name "dragon boat." Each boat typically holds up to 20 paddlers seated side by side, with a drummer at the front and a steersperson at the back guiding the boat.

The sport itself is enjoyed by people of all ages and backgrounds arount the world. Dragon boating is not only a test of physical strength and endurance but also requires teamwork, coordination, and strategy.

Get ready to learn the basics of dragon boating with our experienced coaches. Join us for an exciting and unforgettable experience on the water!
