We are a sporting dragon boat club, run by volunteers and paddle on the beautiful Derwent River with our clubrooms located at the Motor Yacht Club, 1 Ford Parade in Lindisfarne. Our club provides paddlers with the opportunity to compete locally, interstate and overseas.
Derwent Storms welcomes men and women to the sport; anyone who is young-at-heart.
But the Derwent Storms are not just about racing. We are about getting onto the water and paddling together, throughout the year - yes, even through the winter. In the process, we improve our fitness, meet wonderful people, make new friends, and enjoy ourselves. The Club offers some regular paddling sessions of lesser intensity for those who are building their fitness or who just want to get on the water without any pressure.
For those who like a challenge, then there are also sessions in which our coaches will lift you to new levels of fitness and paddling ability.
