Life is about Having Fun

What I like about dragon boat:

1. "The team spirit". You can't move the boat by urself. You need the team effort.
If there is only 1 person that making a 'deep shit' mistake, you may either lost the game completely or putting the whole team into danger of the boat sinking.

2. The energy needed. Dragon boat takes lots of energy and it's a good form of exercising

3. The 'focus and concentration'. Yes, you need to really focus in order to win. You need to listen to instructions from the leader at the front and look at how the rest of your team mates are doing.

4. It's a strategy sport. Yes, you need strategy. From controlling the speed of the rowing, the counting speed, etc.

Dragonboat, is a challenging and healthy sport. I only played twice, but I love the game!

I strongly recommend this game for company sport event.

PS. Please don't give up dragon boat sport only because of the Cambodia dragon boat incident.
I believe, the sport is safe as long as extra precautions are taken.
Such as:
- Evaluating the condition of weather and river prior to racing period
- Make sure the condition of the boat is perfect
- Wearing safety lifevest etc.

Accidents can happen anytime anywhere in any occasions. Life and death is always unpredictable. As long as we live our lives doing the things that we are passionate about. To me, that's the meaning of 'living'.
