About the Club

Different Strokes prides itself on being an inclusive sports club. We train and compete in a way that positively welcomes everyone regardless of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, race, and ability. We allow you to bring your full self, participate in dragon boating, and contribute to the sport. 

We are a Sydney-based dragon boat club formed in 2008, with the aim of providing a social and fitness-focused sporting outlet for the LGBTQI+ community, as well as their friends, family and supporters. We recognise that not all people identify as a man or a woman. 

Our club’s strongest asset is our team spirit. We paddle with a collective determination to challenge stereotypes with our successes, showcase diversity by increasing our visibility, and spark positive change through our actions.
