Following the humble successes of our first year, we expanded and created a second team, then known as the Dragonhearts (1998), and in late 2000, an all-men’s team the Rage, was put together as a testosterone challenge against the infamous Days Inn team. In 2004, a womens’ team, the Amazons was formed and enjoyed a successful season.

Today
The Wong’s Dragon Boat Club, located in Montreal, currently consists of four mixed crews, ranging from the premier Dragonslayers and highly competitive Immortal Dragons to the recreational mixed Chargers and Crusaders crews.

We are proud of our Club Development System, which caters to paddlers commitment, fitness, needs, and abilities and offers opportunities for growth.

Team goals
The club's mission statement is: "To promote and develop interest in the sport of dragon boat racing to the best of our ability through team work, honour, respect, commitment, enthusiasm and fun."

We want to ultimately develop paddlers to represent the Wong’s Dragon Boat Club at the highest levels of dragon boat racing and offer opportunity for growth through defined systematic programs.

Team philosophy
We believe in a fun, family atmosphere where team members enthusiastically support one another, helping each other improve while paddling and training together. All are encouraged to strive to improve as paddlers and achieve higher goals through the Club system. Team members also bond through numerous well-attended social activities held throughout the year, giving 110% of themselves all the while having fun.

Where and how we practice
Our current paddling location is the Lachine Canal, where we train two to three times a week from late April to late September. Winter paddling (one to three times a week) takes place in the paddling pool of the Olympic basin on Ile Notre Dame from early November to late April.

Our paddlers, under the guidance of 22 Dragon coaching staff, invest many hours of focused and dedicated training both on and off the water. Paddling, strength-training and fitness programs are implemented by many of our crews training year-round.

Team results and Accomplishments
In a global sense, the best achievement that we can state is our consistency. Our dragon boat club has been together since 1997, and that with each successive year we have improve upon the previous year without compromising our team philosophy.

We are extremely proud of the impressive progress and accomplishments from each of our crews over the years. Full details are available on the “race results” page of our website.
