Getting fit and staying healthy

There are few better ways to enjoy healthy outdoor activities than paddling with friends on the beautiful Lake Burley Griffin.

We have developed Training and Fitness Programs for start up to high performance paddlers. We are very conscious of matching training and development with the individual’s capabilities.

Our coaches are fully qualified and registered.

Competition

Dragon Flyers compete in the local regattas which are usually held monthly at East Basin on Lake Burleigh Griffin throughout the season September to March.  

Our teams have successfully competed in the Australian Championships for many years and our members have been selected for the ACT Team - the ACT Fire - and the Australian Dragon Boat team – the Auroras.

Our Flyers teams have also participated in international competitions in Hong Kong,  Italy, Hungary, Macau and also in the Masters games such as the Pan Pacific Games on the Queensland Gold Coast.

Fun for Everyone

The social and community aspects of our Club are extremely important to us and we have a variety of activities throughout the year providing the opportunity to enjoy each other’s company and camaraderie off the water.  

We have a wide variety of members and many long lasting friendships have been formed through the Club. Our new members (especially those who are newcomers to Canberra) comment on our welcoming and inclusive culture.
