What we’re about
Dragon Boating is the fastest growing water sport in the world, and is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, get a tremendous workout and make new friends. This group is for anyone 14+ and all fitness levels are encouraged to join. This can be a regular part of your workout routine or you can become a serious Dragon Boater and join our racing team, ScORCh.
Orlando Dragon Boat Club was featured on CNN in April 2017 as part of the CNN Staying Well segment.
Get your company involved! We can accomodate your company team with boat, steersperson, coach and time on the water to prepare for the GWN Orlando International Dragon Boat Festival at Turkey Lake every year in October.

Homosassa River Rodeo
Location not specified yetFOR PAID CLUB MEMBERS ONLY, NO SPECTATORS
This is a feeler to see how many padders want to race at this event. This is a 10 man boat race. Once we have at least 8 paddlers signed up we will register the team.
Deadline is 10/17/25 to RSVP.
Cost per paddler is $30. I am going to limit the number of paddlers and approve them individually. Do not be surprised if you are put on the wait list initially.
This event signup is for paddlers only, not spectators.
In order to race, you must be a paid member in good standing and you must attend practices consistently 2 months prior to the event. Coaches will make final determination of paddlers readiness.See below for more info:
