DRAGONS ABREAST BALLARAT formed in 2005.

We are a social group and warmly welcome all breast cancer survivors and community paddlers.

We train on Lake Wendouree. Our training sessions are relaxed and punctuated with laughter, camaraderie, and mutual support, creating an environment where everyone feels empowered and encouraged.

No prior experience in dragon boating is necessary; we provide all the training and equipment you need to get started.

In addition to our regular training sessions, we participate in various dragon boat festivals and regattas, both locally, nationally and internationally.

Our members come from all walks of life, and each brings their own story and strength to the team. Together, we paddle with purpose, celebrating life and the resilience of the human spirit.

Weather permitting, our paddling days are:

· Saturday Mornings 9.15am, and

· Tuesday evenings 5.00pm (during daylight saving)

To enquire or arrange your debut and safety training, email: secretary.daballarat@gmail.com

After contacting DAB we will help you to co-ordinate your free 30 day Dragon Pass through Dragon Boat Victoria. As paddling is slightly seasonal, best value is obtained by registering during the daylight saving period when weather and daylight provide maximum opportunities to paddle.
