Dragons Abreast Ballarat
Ballarat
State: VIC
Welcome to Our Community
DRAGONS ABREAST BALLARAT formed in early 2005.
We are a social group and warmly welcome all breast cancer survivors and supporters.
We train on Lake Wendouree. Our training sessions are relaxed and punctuated with laughter, camaraderie, and mutual support, creating an environment where everyone feels empowered and encouraged.
No prior experience in dragon boating is necessary; we provide all the training and equipment you need to get started.
In addition to our regular training sessions, we participate in various dragon boat festivals and regattas, both locally, nationally and internationally.
Our members come from all walks of life, and each brings their own story and strength to the team. Together, we paddle with purpose, celebrating life and the resilience of the human spirit.
To try paddling, you can register for a free 30 day Dragon Pass through Dragon Boat Victoria. As paddling is slightly seasonal, best value is obtained by registering during the daylight saving period when weather and daylight provide maximum opportunities to paddle.
Training Times
Weather permitting, our paddling days are:
• Saturday Mornings 9.15am, and
• Tuesday evenings 5.00pm (during daylight saving)
