Would you like to try out a slightly different sport? Well, if you can swim at least 50 metres and have some team spirit, look no further and join us for some Dragonboat paddling in the lead up to the Dragonboat Festival in June. If you haven’t done this sort of thing before, don’t worry you will learn everything you need to know during this training sessions.

This training session will be lead by Paddlers for Life at Debdale Outdoor Centre, 1037 Hyde Rd., Manchester, M18 7LJ. You will have to sign an indemnity form on arrival before taking part in the training. The Confucius Institute will cover the cost of the training session but please confirm your attendance in advance by emailing: tabea.heckrodt@manchester.ac.uk

And if you are enjoying this traditional Chinese team sport, you might be interested in joining the CI Manchester Panda Team to compete in the Chinese Dragon Boat Festival at Salford Quays on Sun, 2 June!
