About Cambridgeshire Royals
Our Mission
- Supporting Fitness, Health & Wellbeing
- Family Friendly
- Inclusive Team Sport
- Being a part of the Community
Dragon boat paddling offers a fantastic full-body workout, helping to improve cardiovascular fitness, build muscle strength, and increase endurance.
It’s a fun and dynamic way to stay active while boosting overall physical health.
A team sport that builds strong bonds between paddlers. Training and racing together creates a real sense of community, which can greatly benefit mental wellbeing.
Racing is a key part of the club. Each year, the team competes in national events organised by the British Dragon Boat Association (BDA), offering the chance to meet paddlers from across the country, be part of the wider dragon boat community—and bring home some medals along the way.
What to Expect
Newcomers are always welcome and will be given a short introduction covering safety and the opportunity to ask questions before getting out on the water.
Our coaches use creative and engaging sessions to keep everyone motivated. Exercising as part of a friendly, close-knit team is highly motivating, and members can train up to three times a week.
Club Socials
Off the water, there are plenty of opportunities to socialise, including quiz nights, Eynesbury Bowls Club included in our membership, End of Race Season Award Ceremony & Party, and Christmas bowling.
Other roles
If paddling isn’t for you, there are still vital roles within the team, including:
- Drummers, who set the rhythm at the front of the boat
- Helms, who steer from the back
- BDA-qualified coaches, who plan and run training sessions, organise crews, and manage race days
- Land Crew, Towing boat & help on race days
