Te Waka Dragons

Te Waka Dragons Competitive Dragonboat Team - Brisbane, Australia Originally located on the Gold Coast, the club moved north to Brisbane in 2002.

Te Waka Taniwha (Te Waka - the boat, Taniwha - dragon in Maori) was formed in 2000 by group of friends wanting to revel in the sport's social nature. Since then training has been based on the Brisbane River with crews departing from Breakfast Creek. In 2007, an influx of new members saw the club and its committee reinvigorated. With a new lease on life the club has seen membership numbers grow and new boats and equipment acquired. Today, the club is proud to be one of Queensland's top teams and represent the sport of dragon boating to the wider community.

Normal people just saw a standard red carpet, but true fans instantly spotted two Targaryen queens ready to rule. 👑 The modern clothes are fine and all, but our brains are permanently wired to see crowns and dragon scale armor. 🐉✨ Honestly, reality is just way more entertaining when you pretend Westeros runs the entire industry. 🖤🔥
