20.01.2022 With all that is happening in the world we wish everyone health and happiness... keep safe, keep strong, and keep paddling... great time for single craft work!!! As one we stand.... paddles up. Hope to see everyone out on the water again soon, once this has cleared.

19.01.2022 Well we have all made it through 2 months of COVID... and how well we have all shown comradery, support and resilliance... finding new ways to train both in fitness and paddling, but also support each other with zoom catch ups, etc. A big special congrats to those who had put their hand up and been selected to trial for the Auroras Premier squad to go to Asia later this year that AusDBF and the Head Coach has cancelled given the uncertainty around ability to travel and train .... Im sure the Auroras would have done us proud at the competition.. But now to think forward to the next World Nations Champaign... Keep safe everyone

16.01.2022 HEAT : Race 93 - Standard Boat 500m Senior A Mixed

16.01.2022 And the final memory for today shows 2 photos.... from 2011 1... prem team at their final training session just days before racing started in Tampa. The team went over early to try to get used to the humid climate having come from winter....... 2.... Each day after racing the team went back to the venue and spent time in the pool cooling off....

16.01.2022 Well the Auroras are settled in, have had a few days on the water and all 291 members of the Auroras squad attended their team dinner to hear aspiring comments from their two captain's and coach tonight. With the ladies also having a special ceremony in honour of one of our own... past but never forgotten. Its now time to focus up, knuckle down, push through the limits and enjoy the experience... You can't influence the results, only what you do yourself on the water.... do us proud Auroras. we will all be watching and cheering you on. Whether from home or in the stands in Thailand..

16.01.2022 Hmmm is this an omen?? Is the world wishing the auroras luck?? Pretty light show in Canberra last night just a week before the Australian Auroras head to worlds in Thailand... Shine bright everyone...

09.01.2022 And here is a great little clip... thanks

08.01.2022 Some of our prems have been reminiscing over their last training session before heading to Canada in 2015 2km racing got a little wet due to some locals enjoying some weekend fun, making the boat take on water and flip. Nothing like a winter dip in the river... and look at the colour of the water ... Gotta love Australia in winter. Who else had some great fun filled training photos to share??

07.01.2022 This is a great little article about one of our own...

06.01.2022 Ahhh yes... That fantastically fun 2km race in Prague 2009... Where the Aussie men were coming down the final straight and passed by Iran as they slowly sank...... The venue caused a bit of choppy water due to its size.... several boat suffered.... But this one depicts it so well.... What fun!!!

06.01.2022 And a few more...

05.01.2022 Nice training snr b.. Thanks fitness 2u for the footage

05.01.2022 Not Auroras specific, but there are plenty of current and future auroras in this video I'm sure.... Congrats to ACT for making it to 30yrs of paddling in the community.. looking forward to seeing what amazing things you achieve in the next 30y

03.01.2022 Race 227 - Standard Boat 200m Senior B Women (Round 2)

03.01.2022 It seems like forever since the Auroras were on the water together... because of COVID it has been held off for what seems like forever...and then today I saw this on the Motionmaster page and was reminded of why we all do this sport... have a read and possibly have a little insight into what a paddler in Auroras go through during a campaign... and then sit and wonder how those who have not been able to get on the water or see their 'family' and reach out to them... We all miss you ...

03.01.2022 The road travelled seems to be getting closer to that ultimate goal... dragon boating to be demonstrated on 2020 Olympics!!!

02.01.2022 Congratulations to the other team captain's for the 2019 auroras... just a few weeks to go!!! Snr a Michelle van niekerk Kim Mahony... Snr c Jennifer Brown Ray Curran Jnr Captains Charlotte Baird Alexia Saladino Jnr Vice captains Tyrese Fraser Angus Dermondy

02.01.2022 So many ex-auroras are posting memories and 'Thank you' posts from part champaigns... im hoping they dont mind them being shared here... apologies in advance if this is the case. Anyone else there have photos/memories they would like to share? P.m if you would like your individual post photo removed and we will do so asap.
