From July 14th to 20th, the 17th International Dragon Boat Federation (IDBF) World Dragon Boat Racing Championships (referred to as the "World Championships") were held in Brandenburg, Germany. Representing China, two powerhouse teams from Shunde — the Shunde Lecong Louvre Dragon Boat Team and the Daliang Sugang Dragon Boat Team — delivered a stellar performance, bringing home seven golds and achieving multiple historic breakthroughs. As the premier international event organized by the IDBF, the World Championships represent the pinnacle of global dragon boat competition. This year's edition drew nearly 4,000 athletes from 32 countries and regions.
The Shunde Lecong Louvre Dragon Boat Team competed in the Premier Open Division, sweeping gold in all four major events for the men's 22-member dragon boat races: the 200-meter, 500-meter, and 1000-meter straight races, as well as the 2000-meter turn race. Notably, the team made history by claiming its first-ever gold in the 1000-meter event. With this performance, they became the first Chinese team to achieve a full sweep of all 22-member events in the Premier Open Division at the World Championships.
Notably, earlier this year, the Shunde Lecong Louvre Team also set a new record by winning nine consecutive national and international dragon boat tournaments, earning an astounding 35 gold medals across various events.
Meanwhile, the Daliang Sugang Dragon Boat Team competed in the U50 category and captured gold in all three events they entered — the 2,000-meter, 200-meter, and 500-meter straight races. This marked their debut on the international stage, making their triple-gold triumph all the more remarkable.
