This year’s Championships will be held across two days, giving paddlers the opportunity to compete in both the traditional 500m championship distance and the fast-paced 200m sprint format:
Saturday: 500m Racing
Sunday: 200m Racing
Note: Following feedback received, and considering the strong entry numbers we have seen at regattas throughout the year, turn races will not be offered at this year’s State Championships.
The DBNSW team looks forward to hosting a fantastic weekend showcasing the strength of dragon boating across NSW, with exciting racing, great camaraderie, and clubs coming together to compete for 2026StateChampionship.
We look forward to seeing you on the water for an incredible weekend of racing.
