Dragon boat (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai)

Dragon boating in Dubai is an increasingly popular water sport. To be successful at dragon boating a team of 8-20 people, one drummer and a steer work together to row across the finish line. The rowers require strength, speed and unison to beat their opponents in the race.

Dragon boating in Dubai mimics one of the earliest forms of boat racing which began thousands of years ago in China. It’s an excellent team-building exercise, as well as a great sport for a novice or professional. Teams of people practice by rowing together in time to the drum beat. The drummer drums a beat which is at a fast but reasonable pace. This is a particular skill which requires the drummer to have understand the maximum capabilities of their team. Too slow and they won’t win the race, too fast and they will fall out of time with one another and slow down.

Equipment required includes a long dragon boat, usually with a decorative dragon hear at the front, the same number of paddles as there are people and a drum.
