Lagan Dragons Celebrate 10 Years on the Water!

September 21, 2025

This year marks a truly special milestone for the Lagan Dragons – a decade of paddling, friendship, and community spirit! From our very first strokes on the River Lagan to becoming Ireland’s first and only dragon boat team for breast cancer survivors, our journey has been nothing short of inspiring.

A Decade of Achievements

Over the last 10 years, we’ve grown from a small group of pioneering women into a vibrant, supportive team. Along the way, we’ve:

  • Taken part in national and international regattas
  • Welcomed new members and supporters every year
  • Raised awareness of the benefits of exercise after breast cancer
  • Built lifelong friendships both on and off the water

A Community That Lifts Each Other Up

At the heart of Lagan Dragons is our motto: “We paddle together, we support each other.” The past decade has shown the strength that comes from teamwork, laughter, and resilience. None of this would have been possible without our members, families, coaches, volunteers, and the wider community who cheer us on at every splash of the paddle.

Looking Ahead

As we celebrate 10 years, we’re also looking forward to the next chapter. With exciting events, new paddlers joining our family, and plenty more adventures ahead, the future of Lagan Dragons is brighter than ever.

Thank You

To everyone who has supported us over the last 10 years – from cheering us on at the riverbank to helping us fundraise – thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are part of our story, and we can’t wait to share the next 10 years with you.

Here’s to a decade of courage, community, and celebration – and to many more years of dragon boating together!
