The Canberra Griffins Dragon Boat Club is a family-friendly club and one of the longest established dragon boat clubs in the ACT. With several parent-child combinations in the team, the club prides itself on encouraging all age groups, from 13 years to 70+, to get involved and paddle! We work to develop world-class paddlers without losing sight of the fact that it is a fun sport and one of the ultimate team sports. We believe in being competitive without sacrificing our basic philosophy: the Griffins follow a path of inclusiveness, mutual respect, encouragement and good-humoured participation. Everyone gets to paddle at every regatta; it’s not an option! We also love to share a coffee, cake or meal after paddling, and we invite non-paddling family members to join in with this bit! 

The Canberra Ice Dragons Paddle Club is an inclusive family friendly club, with a diverse representation of new and experienced paddlers. We welcome all genders, ages and fitness levels.

A commitment to diversity is woven into our values. We believe that our club is strongest when we embrace our members' differences. Whatever your age is, where you come from, and how you identify, you are welcome here. We train hard, race fast and laugh lots. We are fit, fun and fabulous! We proudly support the sport of Dragon Boating in the ACT, and we compete locally, interstate and internationally.

Diamond Phoenix is Canberra's only all women's dragon boat club. Our motto is FITTER, HEALTHIER AND HAPPIER.  

Diamond Phoenix welcomes women of all ages, our current members range from teens to 70+. Our members have different goals, and we cater for social paddlers, paddlers that love to work out, and paddlers that compete in regattas, locally and interstate, including National and Masters Championships. 

We train Monday evenings, Thursday and Saturday mornings. Our training schedule varies in winter so please check our website for up to date information on training times. After training on Saturday we usually enjoy a coffee and cake at a local cafe.

The Dragon Flyers aim to keep fit and healthy, enjoy competition (at local, national and international regattas) and have fun through regular social activities, enjoying our camaraderie on and off the water.

Our members include novices, social paddlers, high performance paddlers and in-between and our fitness and health training and programs are particularly beneficial for Masters (40+) paddlers.

Dragons Abreast is a nationally registered charity that enables breast cancer survivors to get on with life after treatment through dragon boating. Research shows that paddling regularly has many health and social benefits and it is a great way to embrace life and resume an active lifestyle for those travelling the breast cancer journey. We welcome all breast cancer survivors, regardless of age, gender, sporting ability or fitness. Our usual paddling days are on Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. Please notify us at the email address to confirm times. We not only paddle regularly, but we participate in local, interstate and international events.
Connect. Move. Live.

Our name is inspired by the poem Invictus with the last two lines our Club motto - "I am the master of my fate ... I am the captain of my soul".

Invictus Dragon Boat Club is the current Snr A Womens 200m Australian Champions, with our womens crew claiming 7 medals including the 200 m gold at the 2023 Australian Dragon Boat Championships April 2023.

We aim to promote the sport of dragon boating to new paddlers and encourage ex-members (paddlers, drummers and sweeps) to return to the sport. We provide opportunities for all members to broaden their paddling experiences and give every member the opportunity to realise their full potential, and compete against the best competition locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.

If you have a drive to compete, and are looking for friendships and fitness, you'll find it at Invictus.

Come for a paddle with Komodo, the World's Coolest Dragon Boat Club, and see why our members love this club and amazing sport. We offer professional on and off-water coaching and the chance to race in local, interstate and international regattas. You will finish the season fitter, happier and have one hell of a good time along the way. Sure, we hit the water to train and race hard, but at the end of the day it's all about teamwork, working hard, having a laugh and enjoying the great outdoors. Take the leap and give dragonboat racing a go, swing past www.komodopaddleclub.com for more info, then join us for a session to see why we love dragon boat racing. See you soon!

NAVMAT Dragon Boat Racing Club is a diverse and inclusive group of people of all ages who enjoy physical activity, team-work, being outdoors, fitness development and social interaction. 

We love to race at local, interstate and international regattas, and several of our team members have been selected to represent Australia internationally as part of the Auroras National team. 

Our battle cry is “POWER! SPEED! SUCCEED!”

The club prioritises individual safety and inclusiveness, and our Saturday morning “coffee run” is perfect for new paddlers or those returning from a break – but all paddlers benefit and enjoy the focus on technique, and a stop for coffee and a chat. Our Tuesday and Thursday evening squad sessions (plus early Saturday and Monday mornings in summer) are more intense. 

With NAVMAT, whatever your paddling goal we will support you to achieve it!
