Race Officials professional development - session 14 - Paradragons
Event information
Registration for this event closes at Mon 11 Aug 2025 09:00.
The guest presenter for the next Race Official Professional Development session will be Andrew Watson. Some of you may recall working with Andrew this year at AusChamps. Andrew was the Chief Judge and Chief Boat Loader.
Andrew is a level 1 International race official and is a member of the IDBF Paradragon Assessment Team. In addition, Andrew is a member of the IDBF Competition & Technical Committee (C&TC).
We are very fortunate to have someone with Andrew's skill level and knowledge-based in Sydney.
Andrew has very kindly agreed to present to the race officials on the topics of Paradragons, assessment, and inclusivity.
This is quite opportune as Andrew will have just returned from the World Dragon Boat Championships in Germany and no doubt will be able to share his firsthand experiences.
Andrew will cover the definitions to be classified as a Paradrgon.
