Great Britain Premier Dragon Boat Squad

Back from the 15th EDBF European Nations Championships 2024, and all Prem crews managed to win medals. Well done to all athletes and managers involved in building this success through their hard work and dedication. Here’s the chance to grow even faster and stronger as we next take on the World. 🇬🇧

On Day 2 of the Championships brought another two medals for GB Prem: Silver won by the small boat mixed and bronze won by the women. 🥈 🥉 The open crew are within touching distance and all crews are very much in contention for medals on Day 3! 🇬🇧

All GB squads racing well at the EDBF European Championships. GB Senior B bagged a silver medal yesterday, and GB Prem has won one today. Well done all! 🇬🇧

Familiarisation training all done. Now the Championship starts! 🇬🇧 Live stream link can be found here: https://www.dragonboat.cz/en//zavod/509-15th-edbf-european-nations-dragon-boat-championships-2024/

New kit, new excitement. Good to see the squad coming together. The focus is on being ready to take on the challenge of the European Championship in 2 weeks! 🇬🇧

Introducing sport psychologist, Helen; Physio, Esa; the return of coaching member, Jo; and the ongoing support of GBU18 coaches, Lee and Dan. GB Prem are fortunate to be so fully supported. The penultimate training weekend is going well! 🇬🇧

Good paddlers get greater when they keep learning and improving. Liking how this year’s Prem squad are so keen to progress to the next level. Look forward to this weekend’s training where we get to keep progressing. 🇬🇧
