Dragon boat racing helped me find my ‘new normal’ after treatment

We are so proud of Jackie - one of our paddlers. She's always an enthusiastic member of the team and her story has been featured on the Breast Cancer Now website. She talks about us (we're blushing) and how much dragon boat racing has helped her recovery from breast cancer. You can read her story here.

We love this short film about dragon boat from Team DPW in Los Angeles, USA. It really captures the appeal and the community spirit of the sport. We particularly like the quote near the end - "Try it once..." which many of us did, and loved it!
