04.01.2022 This week we feature two strong women that have shown prominence in the dragon boat scene. We have Jacqui Hillas https://rb.gy/dfynmy from Warriors - Albury Wod...onga Dragon Boat Club Inc and Amanda Furse https://rb.gy/p0fuip from Yarra River Dragons Dragon Boat Club. Both are paddlers that have also served as vital committee members in their respective clubs. Fun fact: Both their clubs participated in the Club Crew World Championship in 2018. #teamsport #dragonboatvictoria #profilefeature #paddlelife #paddlesup #dragonboatlife #paddler #watersport #dragonboater #dragonboatracing #strongwomen #motivation

01.01.2022 After 8 months YRDs had our first training session back on the water tonight. While things looked a little different, it was still great to see our crew mates and learn to paddle again on such a lovely evening #weareyrd #yarrariverdragons #redmist #redblaze #ilovemelbourne #docklandsmelbourne #trysomethingnew #yarrarivermelbourne #melbournelife #melbourne
