Since its inception, the San Diego Dragon Boat Team (SDDBT) has developed in many ways amassing an impressive history of success at all levels including national and world championships. We have grown by adding other crews, including our first women's crew in 1992. This crew won silver medals in Singapore and Hong Kong at their first major international competitions. The club has since added a women's cancer-survivor program (Team Survivor) and a collegiate program with students from the University of California, San Diego (UCSD). A youth program is also under development.
