TAMPA BAY, USA is slated to host the 10th IDBF World Dragon Boat Racing

Championship The 2011 World Championship is scheduled for August 1-7, 2011 on the Seddon Channel in Downtown Tampa. The Seddon Channel has been used for many rowing regattas in the years past, including the prestigious University of Tampa President’s Cup.

“We are thrilled for the opportunity to host the 2011 IDBF World Dragon Boat Racing Championship and are sure that all of our guests, paddlers and spectators alike, will enjoy what Tampa has to offer. We are eager to get the local community engaged in a number of ways. The Championship has the ability to bring in close to as many athletes as the Olympic Games and is such great exposure for Tampa,” said Christine Canevari, executive director of the Tampa Bay Dragon Boat Institute.
