Yarra River Dragons Dragon Boat Racing Club reviews
18It’s a really friendly club and perfect if you’re looking for social or competitive dragon boat racing. The coaches are great and really help you improve. Coffee and brekkie after training is great too!
I have joined Yarra River Dragons (or YRD as they call it) last year in June. I have completed one full season with YRD. It was an absolute pleasure to start my paddling with the club. It's was my first time paddling but I never felt like a newbie. The club provided me with great support both on and off the water in terms of technique and strength training to become a strong paddler right from beginning to all way to the nationals. Yes you read that right. I had the opportunity to compete in Auschamps 2023 (National dragon boat championship) in my first season with YRD. YRD is one of the most competent clubs based in Melbourne. I am in to my second season and love it. If you ever want to try a new sport either as a hobby or in a competitive level, I highly recommend dragon boating as a sport and YRD as club to start with.
Its an amazing experience to be part of YRD.the efforts the coaches put into their work is extremely professional, and the members are loving family.
When I first arrived, I didn't know Melbourne had a dragon boating club. But thjs team pleasantly surprised me with the great supportive atmosphere and drive to succeed in their endeavours. Would highly recommend to try out.
After the come and try session on nice saturday morning, I know this is it. My favourite sport. I love the friendliness and professionalism of this team sport. Everyone were so welcoming and genuine. Highly recommended for anyone who want to try out. Best water sport!
What a fun way to break up your week!
Meet some fantastic people, work hard for an hour and go home. Family friendly with a bit of competitive edge - the best!
A great club, with great people. The Yarra River Dragons are a seriously competitive Dragon boat crew!
Just have the greatest fun! Inclusive, professional, maintain on and off water training in lign with update training approaches drawn from around the world. Fair and transparent assessments and always open to feedback.
I wasn't even aware Melbourne had a Dragon Boat team until my cousin's husband told me he was the assistant coach of CYSM Sea Dragons and asked if I wanted to trial for 3 free sessions. As soon as I arrived at the club, the energetic friendly vibe was immediately infectious. 3 Seasons in and I'm still loving this Club! The people and the support and care for each other is what still keeps me paddling:)
A family friendly club, with a great welcoming atmosphere. That's also very competitive.
I have been with the dragon boat club for 7 years and I am loving this big family. We paddle and race together, and share food and lots of great time. It's my family in Melbourne.
I moved to Australia with no friends or hobbies, tried out dragon boating with CYSM on a whim and found myself with more than what I expected, they gave me a new family and an awesome way to keep fit! If you want to try something new, meet a great bunch of people and make a second home for yourself, this is the place for you
Love this club! Very competitive and inclusive. Accepting of all types of people. If you want to train hard and compete hard, this is the club for you!
I joined this dragon boat team nearly a year ago, and it has been a truly fantastic decision! The people are very supportive, encouraging and love to have a fun time together. If you want to find another 'family', this team is the one!
Best club to start paddling with. Great atmosphere and everyone is really friendly and welcoming.
One of the best dragon boating club in Victoria, also one of the friendliest one. You wont be disappointed, its real fun
Great Atmosphere. Fantastic people. And awesome team sport, for all ages (from 12 onwards) and all genders. Mix races, Open Races, Ladies Races, regattas are awesome in beautiful lakes and waterways. Make friends and get fit,
