15.01.2022 Review of Championships Schedule April 10, 2020 The IDBF Executive continues to meet regularly to discuss the possible rescheduling of championships in the current program. At this stage, no date has been set for when the next Club Crew World Championship (CCWC) will be. This is yet to be determined.... There are many moving parts to organising championships and a multitude of factors to be considered. The views of athletes and organising committees remain integral to the decision-making process of the IDBF. We are still in consultation with athletes, national dragon boat federations and championship organisers to determine the impacts that potential future dates may have on their plans. Some of the issues raised include: Athletes have expressed the opinion that they are unable to do two world championships in a year Working around continental and national championships already scheduled in 2021 Potential clash with exam time for Juniors, U18 and U24 Operational and logistical challenges for organising committees The IDBF understands and appreciates that compromises and adjustments might need to be made. The rescheduling of championships may mean additional costs to qualifying clubs, organising committees and the IDBF. We are looking into those in great detail. To ensure you receive accurate updates about CCWC and other IDBF Championship events, please follow and share only official news from the IDBF or your national dragon boat federation. Thank you for your patience and resilience during these difficult times. We wish you all a safe and happy Easter. Mike Thomas IDBF President

11.01.2022 Hi paddlers, training is CANCELLED TONIGHT. Sorry for the last minute change in training plans, but due to the latest advice concerning the Corona virus, we have decided to modify our training in order to minimise any health risk to paddles. We need 24-48 hours as coaches to re-think a training format. We will be in contact with you before Thursday training. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Regards, Coaches

07.01.2022 CCWC2020 WILL NOT BE HELD IN 2020 Dear Dragon Boat Community, it is with a heavy heart that we announce that the 12th IDBF Club Crew World Championships (CCWC) ...in France will not be held in 2020. We have no word to express our sadness but the health and wellbeing of all of you, our team, volunteers and everyone involved, is our sole consideration. We’ve been monitoring the situation for weeks but are now facing too much uncertainties, each day bringing new unprecedent challenges and sad news. The Organising Committee and the City of Aix les Bains are still committed to hosting the Championships in 2021. Our enthusiasm is still alive. We know you have plenty of questions, please be patient. The organizing committee and the IDBF are at your disposal to bring you appropriate answers. Stay at home, stay safe, take care.
