What we’re about

Different Strokes is a Sydney-based dragon boat club formed in 2008, with the aim of providing a social and fitness-focused sporting outlet for the LGBTQI+ community, as well as their friends, family and supporters.
After years of continuous improvement, we are positioning ourselves as more than just a social club. Our race crews have continued to raise the bar at regattas, with wins and placings in finals, as well as member representation at both the state and Australian level.
Our club’s strongest asset is our team spirit. We paddle with a collective determination to challenge stereotypes with our successes, showcase diversity by increasing our visibility, and spark positive change through our actions.

If you are keen in meeting new people while achieving fitness goals, dragon boating may just be the perfect activity for you! We regularly train at Blackwattle Bay (next to the Sydney Fish Market) on the following times:
- Tuesday evening: 6:30pm to 8pm
- Thursday evening: 6:30pm to 8pm
- Saturday morning: 7:15am to 9am
We consider ourselves, fit, fierce and fun!
