National dragonboat championships Caloundra 2009

Adeline and Wee-Ching headed off to Caloundra (on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland) for the National draonboat championships to paddle for South Australia. The weather was warm and atmosphere was buzzing. We were amazed at the number or premier aged paddlers in the NSW and QLD teams and were more determined than ever to try and increase the number of young paddlers in South Australia. Our women's crew did well, placing 4th.

The Lord Mayor’s Dragon Boat Head of the River

IT WAS ON! On Friday 27th October 2007 the competition was fierce, fast and furious between two University dragon boat teams, Adelaide Uni and UniSA at the inaugural Lord Mayor’s Dragon Boat Head of the River Uni Dragon Boat Race.

With Dragon Fly members on both opposing teams, spirits ran high and tensions mounted in the bid to win the majority of 4 races for the day and be victorious!

DBSA Dinner 2005

23 April 2005

On 23rd April 2005 the Dragon Fly members were invited to attend the DBSA Dinner, an annual event held to celebrate the end of each season with food, entertainment, award presentations and great company. Dragon Fly members were in particularly high spirits as the event capped off what was a terrific season for us.

This year the Dinner was held at the AAMI Stadium, and apart from a change in the environment, a noticeably improved course of delicious meals was enjoyed by all.
