A continuous 3-hour dragon boat relay organized by corporate teams in solidarity with the dragon boating community, to raise funds and create awareness towards the sport.

The tragedy that struck the Singapore National Dragon Boat Team in Cambodia last November is the reason for the Corporate Dragon Boat Relay 2008: Show of Faith.

This unique relay, a special corporate affiliates initiated event with the support of SDBA, will kick off the Singapore Dragon Boat Association’s (SDBA) events calendar this year, conveys the strong support from corporate teams for the sport and the dragon boat community at large.

We hope that through this event, we can raise the public awareness that dragon boating is a safe sport, especially so in Singapore.
This is also the first time that corporate organizations, who normally view each other as competitors on the water, are coming together to show our concerted support to the sport that we are all so passionate about,” said Mr Adrian Tan, spokesperson for the corporate organizing committee and co-captain of Shell’s dragon boat team.

Paddlers with no experience are also welcome to paddle alongside with seasoned paddlers, so more people will come to know what dragon boating is about, and that it is a safe sport.

Dragon boating has been gaining in popularity over the past few years and is notable for its strong corporate involvement and support, because it promotes teamwork and camaraderie,” said RADM (RET) Kwek Siew Jin, President (SDBA).

Sadly, a clause in the Entry rules states:

"ELIGIBILITY
The paddlers for this race must be employees of any corporate organization."
