About our club
Marist Dragons is a well-established community club that paddles from a boatshed on the Lane Cove River behind Marist Sisters’ College, Woolwich. Our members come from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, and range in age to 60-plus. Some had never paddled before; others have been members of the Auroras, the Australian national dragon boat team.
​
The club is registered with Dragon Boats NSW, and competes in regattas including the Chinese New Year races all the way up to the national championships. If your focus is more on fun and fitness, that’s fine. There’s a place in the boat for everyone.
​
Safety is a priority. All sessions are supervised by experienced coaches and sweeps.
​
If you want to give dragon boating a go, you can enjoy up to five free Marist Dragons training sessions. To book, phone 0423 247783 or email maristdragonsinfo@gmail.com
​
When you realise you love dragon boating (and we’re sure you will), you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the modest cost of membership - much less than joining a gym. And if you’re a school student, you can use your Active Kids voucher to cover fees. Marist Dragons is a registered provider.
