Paddlers Anonymous (PA) was founded in 2000 by three students from the University of Waterloo. It was originally created as a way for new friends to have fun and experience the sport of dragon boat racing over the course of one summer. Since then, PA has grown into a multi-team organization involving dynamic individuals from various Canadian universities and the Greater Toronto Area workforce. Are you looking for a sport that’s fun, challenging, and gets you on the water? Join DaCatch – a competitively focused recreational dragon boat team! We’re seeking a few more paddlers ready to learn and sharpen their skills, build strength, and push past limits.

Puff is a 501(c)(3) organization established in 2003, based in Miami, FL, and practicing in the Miami Marine Stadium basin. We have 3-4 practices per week, all year, and races spread out throughout the year. We encourage use of the club OC-1s and OC-2s for training, and we use the OC-2 for testing for race seats.

The head coach is a five time Team USA paddler and ongoing Team USA coach, and all assistant coaches are multi-time team USA veterans. We have some races where we are multiple boats deep in a division and everyone races, and others where the bar for a seat is very high.

We are always looking for new paddlers, get in touch!

True North Leviathan is one of the largest and fastest-growing dragon boat racing programs in Toronto, Canada, dedicated to developing athletes beyond the recreational level. We are a progressive team focused on helping athletes unlock their full potential, offering opportunities for both new and experienced paddlers. Our emphasis is on creating an environment that promotes growth, fosters a strong sense of competitiveness, and builds community spirit.

The Leviathan Orange-Red team is our “gateway development” mixed-gender program, specifically designed to provide athletes with the foundational skills necessary to advance beyond recreational participation. For those seeking to take their skills to the next level, the Leviathan Gold-Black “competitive development” mixed-gender team and the Purple (women’s) program are geared toward refining skills for high-performance competitive racing. These teams are committed to consistently being among the fastest “twice-a-week” crews in the province, setting ambitious goals for excellence in the sport.

We are an established, fun, positive, and recreational dragon boat team based out of Outer Harbour in Toronto. Our focus is to be inclusive and welcome all paddlers regardless of age or experience.

Please note that we practice to race. Dragon boating is a fun and athletic sport, but it does need a basic level of fitness, so that you can paddle steadily for roughly one hour.

Practices take place weekly from May to September. We care about improving our performance, no matter where we are or who we are up against. Together, we can build a sense of belonging, inclusion and achievement.

Michael Teixeira will continue to coach us in 2026.

Join us and meet new people, learn new skills, breathe in some fresh air, enjoy the waterfront, and get some exercise. Don’t miss our adventure this coming season with the thrill of racing and the camaraderie of our special group. Please see the website for more details.
