For Club Crew Championships, every athlete on any given crew comes from the same club. This is different from the IDBF World Championships, where the Team USA crews are built from a selection of our nation's top athletes. Further details about these events, past results, and previous event listings can be found below.

In 1991. IDBF embraced the principles of anti-doping and enshrined in its Competition Regulations an Anti-Doping Policy and Rules. These measures have been implemented at IDBF World Championship Regattas ever since and revised, as and when required, to incorporate the Anti-Doping Rules for International Federations, promulgated by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA). Some dragon boat competitions will require participants, including coaches, managers and paddlers, to document anti-doping education and athletes will be subject to testing as outlined in the Anti-Doping Rules.
