Nature Coast Dragon Boat Club
One Club, Three Teams!

A club with something for everyone that loves to be on the water!

The ancient sport of DRAGONBOAT racing is the fastest growing water sport in the world! It is a team sport in its purest form, and encompasses the elements of power, speed, synchronization and endurance. Ten or twenty paddlers, one steer, and one drummer work in total harmony. ALL age groups are welcome, 12 years old and UP!!! Did you know that there are Senior D clubs that race on a national level and those folks must be 70 plus?

Nature Coast DragonBoat Club is excited to be ONE Club offering THREE (3) separate teams:
RACE, COMMUNITY, and YOUTH. All teams will receive advanced level coaching and equipment is available to all new paddlers. We are based in Homosassa and train on the Homosassa River (with additional destinations in the Community Paddle Team).

The RACE team and YOUTH Team will practice for and be eligible to enter races. As a competitive DRAGONBOAT racing club, we enter many DRAGONBOAT festivals throughout the year. Festivals offer 10-person mini-boat and 20-person standard boat options; we have both mixed gender and women-only race teams.
As a nonprofit (501c7), our club performs community service activities throughout the year. We also love to have fun and enjoy socializing off the water- we train hard and play hard!
