ABOUT US: NZDBA

The New Zealand Dragon Boat Association (also known as Dragon Boat NZ) or in brief the NZDBA is the national body for the sport of Dragon Boating in NZ known as the "peak sporting body" or the National Sports Organisation (NSO).

Most New Zealand Dragon Boat teams are members of a local Dragon Boat Association (the "Regional Sports Organisation" or RSO) which manages and runs the sport in their region. These RSOs in turn are members and affiliate to the NZDBA.

There are currently five RSOs affiliated to the NZDBA as follows:

The NZDBA is a full member of the International Dragon Boat Federation (IDBF) which is the controlling body for the sport on a world wide basis.
