One Team. One Paddle. One Powerful Mission.
We are the Dragoneers — a passionate family of athletes from all walks of life, united by one powerful mission: to live the American dream by doing what we love every single day.
We train hard. We race with heart. And we win together — not just for ourselves, but for something greater. Through the thrilling sport of dragon boat racing, we raise funds for charity, inspire our community, and pour our energy into mentoring local high school students.
From nurses and teachers to CEOs, military veterans, first responders, and everything in between — we come together as one team. Whether you’re 18 or 80, if you’re ready to challenge yourself, stay in peak condition, and become part of something truly special, you belong here.
We train year-round on the breathtaking waters of Lake Deaton in Sumter County, Florida — 519 acres of pure beauty we are proud to call home.
If you’re looking for more than just a hobby — if you want purpose, camaraderie, competition, and joy — then it’s time to join the crew.
Take a TEST RIDE with us. Try out for the team. Experience the power, the rhythm, and the unbreakable bond that makes dragon boating the fastest-growing team sport in America.
Welcome to the Dragoneers. Your paddle is waiting.
