On the 17th May almost forty of our paddlers travelled to Castelldefels, to take part in the 5th Barcelona International Dragon Boat Festival which took place from the 17th to 19th May. We entered teams in the Seniors, Masters and BC categories, a total of seven teams in fourteen races. We had three teams get to the finals in the Senior 500m, Masters 200m and BC 200m. The icing on the cake was when our BC team won bronze!
We are extremely proud of our teams, everyone paddled their hearts out and enjoyed the festival to the full. In fact we were presented with the "Spirit of the Dragon" award just for being an awesome team. We will be back even stronger next year!
