As we prepare to hit the water at the National Water Sports Centre in Carrum this weekend, it’s the perfect opportunity to release footage from our episode of ABC’s ‘Play On’ series. Created by highly respected Journalist Paul Kennedy, it takes a look at what makes Dragon Boat such a pivotal part of local communities, along with the friendships and connections the sport generates.

Thank you to ABC International. To watch head to DBV’s YouTube Channel - https://youtu.be/Y0wBiC4cpLg?si=k8Lrjq7AMDBwp4KF
