Mission Dragon Boat at UC Irvine is a team that competes at dragon boat festivals, racing against other college teams and non-college teams. Dragon boat is a sport consisting of twenty paddlers in a long canoe shaped, paddling simultaneously. We are heading into our 20th year of existence and have races in San Francisco; Tempe, AZ; Long Beach; San Diego; and even Vancouver. We are a team that strives to exceed expectations in our training and competition. Along with training, our team aims to build strong bonds and create a big family. With this sense of family and competition, we strive to represent UCI at the best of our ability at every race.
