Welcome to the home of Team Manvers Dragons.
Team manager: Caramia Muffett
Looking to get involved with Dragon Boating,
Come along to one of our training sessions and have a go. No experience is necessary, and all the equipment is provided, so there is really no excuse – what are you waiting for….?
Manvers has been hosting Dragon Boat racing since 2019, and in 2024, their brand new teams were formed. We’re a full member of the British Dragon Boat Racing Association. We offer training for those that are competitive, those that want social paddling and for those younger, up and coming champion paddlers.
Dragon Boat Racing is one of the world’s fastest-growing participation sports. It is a whole-body workout that builds strength, stamina, and endurance. Whether you are looking to improve your strength and fitness, push your limits, meet new people, try something new and fun, any, or all the above, THIS is the sport for you!
Team Manvers dragons are based at Manvers lake Wath upon Dearne Rotherham and are part of Manvers Waterfront Boat club. We are always looking for new team members to join the team. If you want to come along and join in this popular team sport we train regularly on Monday and Thursday evenings at 6.00pm and Sundays 10:00am for Juniors(age 10-18) and 11:00am. Monday sessions are the only sessions where you will need experience. These sessions are normally 30 minutes to prepare the equipment with one hour on the water. For more information please contact the Club.
Safeguarding
No one involved in sport and physical activity, whether they’re a volunteer, participant, spectator or an athlete, should ever have to worry about abuse or harassment. Safeguarding in sport is the process of protecting children and adults from harm by providing a safe space in which to play sport and be active. For further information please see the link below:
