Our Story: Rising from the Waves
The Siargao Dragons were born on June 21, 2023, just three weeks before the First International Dragon Boat Competition in Dapa, Siargao. Despite the short preparation time, our team’s determination led us to victory, placing in multiple categories against 28 teams. We’re a diverse crew of 30 boys and 20 girls. Together, we’re not just a team; we’re a family committed to bringing pride to Siargao Island.
Meet the Team
We’re a mix of surfers, fitness enthusiasts, and community advocates. Our training sessions are intense and frequent, with early morning practices. When competition season is near, we double down with additional sessions to ensure we’re race-ready.
Community Involvement
Beyond the races, we’re deeply involved in our local community. From volunteering at fun runs for animal welfare to inspiring local kids to embrace a healthy lifestyle, we believe in giving back to the place that’s given us so much.
