Dragon Boat at ASU was founded in 2009 as a recreational team devoted to promote the sport of dragon boating. Since then, the team has embarked on countless competitions and was officially recognized as one of Arizona State University’s sport clubs in 2016. Bonded by their passion for the sport, the team constantly strives to motivate each other to improve mentally and physically. Their unique camaraderie is forged by their love for dim sum, sushi, and Korean BBQ. United by their differences, they paddle together as one.
Twice a week, the team trains for competitions on the west coast: Long Beach Dragon Boat Festival, San Diego Dragon Boat Race, and Arizona Dragon Boat Festival.
Dragon Boat at ASU welcomes any individual seeking a great team sport comprised of strong discipline, determination, and team spirit. Everyone on the team constantly strives to motivate each other, to improve mentally and physically in every training.
