Are you a Paradragon Athlete (or) Willing to be a Support Paddler?

Paradragon Athlete is a term used by the International Dragon Boat Federation (IDBF) to describe paddlers who have some form of physical, psychological, neurological, sensory, developmental or intellectual impairment. The impairment may be minor or severe – there is no minimum threshold, and the sport tries to accommodate those with even the most challenging impairment.

Paradragon Supporters are able-bodied dragon boat paddlers willing to paddle with and possibly assist Paradragon paddlers. The PD2 division allows for half the team to be supporters and half (or more) to be Paradragons. In addition, supporters who do not wish to paddle can assist in other ways, such as providing organizational skills and fund raising assistance.
