- About BAD
- The Bay Area Dragon Boat Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and our primary focus is dragon boat paddling and racing. Our racing team is known as the Bay Area Dragons (a.k.a. BAD). We have some of the most experienced dragon boat paddlers in Northern California. Formed in 1996, the Bay Area Dragon Boat Foundation provides coaching, steering, and general support for our members and local teams. Our organization is run by 100% volunteers.
BAD has its own boats and we practice all year. In addition to competing in the local races in San Francisco, Foster City, Redwood Shores, Oakland, and Fremont, we travel to races in other US cities, Canada, and internationally. BAD has participated in races in Long Beach, Phoenix, Portland, New York City, Vancouver, Montreal, and other North American destinations. In 2000, BAD took its racing crew to Germany and in 2002, we paddled in the World Crew Club Championships in Rome, Italy.
BAD members organize social events beyond paddling – BBQs, dinner parties, ballroom dancing, clubbing, kayak trips, bowling, broom ball, indoor rock-climbing, laser tag, and much more. You name it, we have done it!
BAD has a great winning record - our Mixed, Men’s, and Women’s teams are all multiple trophy winners in local and road trip races.
