The Silver Dragons


sd1Powell River’s Senior Dragon Boat Team


The Powell River Senior Dragon Boat team originally formed in 2007 for one purpose – to compete in the B.C. Senior Games. A senior team came together again for the 2010 B.C. Senior Games. A number of the senior team members expressed a wish to form a permanent team which would continue throughout the year. The winter months would be for dryland training and spring and summer months for paddling on the water.

In December of 2010 the Silver Dragons Senior Dragon Boat Team became a member of the Powell River Dragon Boat and Paddling Club/Society. The senior team competes in various festivals over the spring and summer racing season as well as the B.C. Senior Games.

The ‘Silver Dragons’ came together to help promote a healthy lifestyle for seniors. There are no restrictions on health or fitness level. If you can hold a paddle, enjoy exercising outdoors and would like to try a team sport, dragon boating may be just what you are looking for.

The senior team is open to both men and women 55 years of age and over.
