Youth Afloat Dragon Boat Challenge

Once again, the Docklands Sailing and Watersports centre are calling for crews to take part in the "Youth Afloat" Dragon Boat Challenge, helping to raise funds for the DSWC Summer Youth Afloat Programme, giving local youth the opportunity to take part in water sports activities during the summer holidays.

The event promises an exciting evening of action, noise and most of all fun, with teams taking part in Dragon Boat Racing, followed by a social evening with prize giving and a barbeque. Dragon Boat Racing is a unique sport - you don't need any experience to participate, anyone can do it.  It caters for all ages, mixed abilities, male and female in one crew.

The event takes place on Tuesday 19th July 2011 at the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre from 6.00 pm onwards. Teams number from 14 to a maximum of 17 participants (including drummer) and if you have the option, you are welcome to enter more than one team - the more the merrier! 

Be prepared for a colourful and exciting night. Teams are welcome to dress up... and remember to bring a spare change of clothes.
