About us

Join us for practice and embrace the thrill of dragonboating!

In 2009, women from the AZ Sun Warriors and AZ Gila Dragons joined forces to form the AZ SunGi Womenโ€™s Dragonboat Team. Since then, our team has grown to include women from other AZ dragonboat teams, as well as ladies from our local outrigger canoe clubs! What words can describe these women? Passion. Desire. Determination. Teamwork. Synergy. Support. Sportsmanship. Fun. All of these qualities help shape and mold the team into what it is today. We are excited that you are exploring such a great sport with a bunch of great women who love to paddle.

What is Dragonboating? It's a high-intensity, exhilarating, ancient team sport originating 2,000 years ago in China. Teams of up to 20 paddlers sitting side-by-side in a long canoe paddling in sync to the beat of a drummer while a steers person guides the boat. Tempe Town Lake Serves as the nub for our dragonboat community here in AZ.

Come out on the water and paddle with us. Whether you're a seasoned boater or a beginner looking to try something new, our group offers a supportive and inclusive community for enthusiasts of all levels.
