Tweed Dragons great inaugural result at worlds and now our juniors taking it to the highest level - Great work Kalani & Josh - just reward for your determination and commitment, great work also by parents Marg and Andrew for always being there for them.
Tweed Dragons have represented Australia by competing in their inaugural Club Crew World Championship held in Szeged, Hungary 17 - 22 July 2018.This championship featured 30 countries, 160 clubs and over 6100 paddlers.
Tweed competed in the Senior B category which is for paddlers over 50 years of age, finishing 8th in the world over 500 metres and 11th in the world over 200 metres and over 2 km. A most credible result, especially when it is considered that over half of our crew were over 60 years, and one was over 70.
