It is a while since many of us have been in the boat, so time to dust off the cobwebs and breathe life into those atrophied muscles. The season kicks off in February. I expect to see most of the faces from last year as well as a few new ones. The Lamma OCC (outrigging) has gone fantastically well during our off-season so for those that have been involved in that don’t forget that there is a major shift in gear required to get 'dragonboat fit'.

For the new blood joining the team Dave has got a fantastic training schedule lined up and the races are starting to pile up. We will be entering the usual events such as the IPC's excellent event at deepwater bay as well as Shatin, Tin Hau, Cheung Chau, Chai Wan, and most probably (although each year we swear blind we'll never do it again) ...Stanley.


 
Last year the girls sent a very successful team to Boracay, we also welcomed the Borcay team back here in HK for Stanley and the Internationals. It would be fantastic to send a full men's team this year and whoop their ass! It is a very reasonable trip and a fantastic venue.
