Deepwater Dragon Boat Club will hold a “Come and Try” day on Sunday, February 25.
Starting out as a very small club at Woy Woy 12 years ago, the club has grown significantly, as has the sport of dragon-boating.
A move to Saratoga Sailing Club saw the club grow from strength to strength, with it now being around the fifth largest club in NSW.
Dragon-boating is a low impact team sport that is great for strength and fitness.
The sport provides opportunities for all.
As well as the sporting side, the club has other benefits like building networks, social gatherings and regular trips away competing.
“If you just want to paddle to keep active and fit, or, if you are interested in competition, the club caters for both,” a spokesperson said.
Regattas are held throughout the year all over NSW.
The club travels from Sydney to as far north as Urunga and recently ventured to Canberra as well as Adelaide for the Australian Masters Games.
The free “Come and Try” day will be held at 9.30am on Sunday, February 25, at Saratoga.
Seats are limited so book a spot via the Deepwater Dragon Boat Club Facebook page.
