Welcome to the American Dragons of Singapore Website.
The 2013 Paddling Season is off to a good start.
The American Dragons hosted the 8th annual Mardi Gras Challenge on Feb 23rd, which is the first event in the Singapore dragon boat calendar. With about 200 total participants from nine different clubs, it was a fun way to kick of the year. With a format of paddlers from different clubs being randomly assigned to different boats, and then each boat having to complete a series of USA / Mardi Gras-themed challenges – the event emphasizes intra-team camraderie between friendly rivals.
In the MR500 competition on Mar 16-17, the team had a great success by taking 2nd / Silver in the Inter-Club Championship, against a field of 20 other Singapore-based club teams. In addition, in the International Business Community (Expat) event, the final result of 4th out of 13 total teams (just missing a bronze medal) was very respectable.
With members from over 20 nations, we are the most international paddling club in Singapore. Interested new paddlers are welcome and there are plenty more competitions ahead.
