Dragon Boat Race

Sunday 26th July 2026
Warrington Rowing Club

Registrations for the St. Rocco's Dragon Boat Race are now open!

Our annual Dragon Boat Race turns vital fundraising into a full-blown community adventure. It's loud and colourful, and it gets teams splashing, cheering, and laughing together, all while generating vital funds for end-of-life care across Warrington. It's a day that brings families, businesses, and friends out in force, raising money and community spirit. It's fundraising with heart, teamwork, and a whole lot of fun!

How it works:

  • Boats cost £500.
  • You'll need a minimum of 16 rowers and 1 drummer, but we'd recommend around 20 team members to sub in if needed.
  • Each team will row 3 races, with the fastest 3 times on the day heading to the grand final to compete for the coveted Dragon Boat trophy.

Volunteers

Our marshals make our events what they are, and we can't run them without them. If you could spare a little time, we would value your help.

We are mainly looking for marshals to direct cars on arrival and marshal the event area throughout the day. There are also roles selling raffle tickets and running the St. Rocco's stall selling merchandise.
