The Singapore National Dragon Boat team which participated in the Hong Kong races comprised 39 members, with a mixture of working professional and students who did Dragon Boating part-time. Nonetheless, their commitment and passion for the sport was apparent as they did Singapore proud by clinching the overall Champion for the Open races, Mixed Gender Races and Women’s Races.
