| Dragon boating was introduced
to Canberra in 1990 by a few individuals keen on developing the sport
and culture of Dragon Boats throughout the district. The Canberra
Dragon Boats Association Inc. (CDBA) was established in 1995, operating
from Lotus Bay on Lake Burley Griffin, using the facilities of the
Canberra Southern Cross Club's Yacht Club.
CDBA is made up of a community of people from several
teams within the district who share a common goal, to be active
and successful participants in this fun and exhilarating team sport.
Membership of the CDBA peaks at the March Canberra Festival Regatta,
and includes sporting teams, social teams and schools.
CDBA is a full member of the Australian Dragon Boat Federation
and is recognised as a peak body by ACT Sport and Recreation.
CDBA provides and maintains a number of dragon boats for each of
the clubs to use, along with equipment such as paddles and sweep
oars. During peak season, the boats are on the water every day.
