The Gorge Super Sprints were created in 2005 to give dragon boat teams a high caliber race opportunity at early in the season, to help prepare them for the summer and fall racing season. Internationally recognized teams like the Navy Dragon Anchors and Xtreme Reach will duke it out with some up and coming crews for the coveted Golden Paddle, the award for the top team in each category (Open Mixed and Women’s).

Dragon Boating has been an exciting summer activity in Victoria for over a decade. A typical Dragon Boat race is contested over 500 metres. At 250 metres, the Gorge Super Sprints offer teams little room for error, and promise extremely close races. There will be food vendors and lots of fun to be had.

GO Rowing and Paddling Association of Canada (GO) is a non-profit Amateur Athletic Association, and Registered Charity, dedicated to sharing the benefits of rowing and paddling sports with Canadians of all ages & athletic abilities. The GRPC (a GO Centre), offers community based rowing and paddling programs for all ages and abilities. read more...
