Did you know that the sport of Dragon Boat racing is one of the world’s fastest growing team sports, with an estimated 60 million participants in over 50 countries? With Canada hosting some of the largest Dragon Boat racing events held outside of Asia, we feel that this sport provides an excellent forum for your product and company name.
In our quest for yet another successful paddling season, we are asking for sponsorship. We realize that you may receive many similar requests and we believe that our non-profit, reputable organization can provide valuable exposure for your products in both Quebec and Canadian markets.
Located in Montreal, the Wong's Dragon Boat Club has approximately 50 members, ranging from paddlers in the highly competitive Dragonslayers crew, to the more recreational-level Chargers crew. In existence since 1997, the Wong's Dragon Boat Club is a non-profit organization that has proven itself successful at developing a perfect winning synergy of teamwork and competitiveness. Our crews and paddlers continue to race at local, provincial, national and international competitions.
For example, the Dragonslayers reached international success winning a bronze medal at the 2002 World Club Crew Championships in Rome. This same crew was multiple gold medalist and winner at the 2004 Canadian National Club Crew Championships. In addition, a number of our paddlers have recently represented Canada at the 2005 World Dragon Boat Racing Championships, have competed in recent World Championships in Berlin, Toronto and later this 2007 season in Australia.

Associating your firm with our club and this popular and ever growing multicultural sport will have many benefits including:
- Achieving a greater geographic reach and improving your corporate and brand exposure at various dragon boating events throughout Quebec, Ontario and abroad.
- Promoting a healthy and fit lifestyle by linking your corporate image with a sport that continues to grow in popularity amongst all ages, level of competition and diverse communities. The public generally approves of companies that give back to the community and your heightened corporate visibility may enhance customer relations.
- Publicize your corporate presence to potential customers, in a cost-effective manner. It is common to have thousands of competitors and spectators attending many of the events. In addition, our Club has been featured in various media over the past few years (television, newspapers, internet). What better way to showcase your corporate presence than by having our team members wearing your logo (for example) during interviews?
- Promoting your products and corporate profile to the amateur athletic and sports market with a potential for worldwide exposure.
