History     Dragon Boating in the UK     British Dragon Boat Association      
 The British Dragon Boat Racing Association is the governing body of dragon boat racing in Great Britain. Dragon boat racing is one of the fastest growing and most exciting water sports you can take part in. The BDA is responsible for all aspects of the sport from community development up to managing British teams racing abroad. It runs a National League calendar for racing crews all round the country together with the National Championships held annually at the National Water Sports Centre.

 The BDA controls the sport through its Executive Committee and Council, which consists of BDA Members' representatives. The sport is managed by the elected members of the Executive Committee and where established, the Divisional, Regional and Area committees. This committee structure is supported by a voluntary Secretariat and appointed officials (Coaching Organizers, Sports Co-ordinators) who administer the affairs of the Association on a day to day basis.
