🐉 Dragon Boat Racing Results 2026 🐉

What a fantastic day of racing at this year's Sherborne Castle Country Fair!

With thanks to NFU Mutual for sponsoring the Dragon Boat Racing, we'd like to congratulate all the teams who took part. The standard of competition was incredibly high, with some exceptionally close finishes throughout the day.

🏆 Youth Final
🥇 Leweston Red Dragons – 01:18.21
🥈 Leweston 6th Form Wyverns – 01:18.44
🥉 Paddle Pirates (Somerset & Dorset Sea Cadets) – 01:19.16

🏆 Adult Final
🥇 Communifit Dragon Slayers – 01:07.79
🥈 The Outsiders – 01:08.34
🥉 Uncle Tom's Cabin – 01:09.32

While only six of the 19 competing teams are represented on the podium, these close results reflect the determination, teamwork and sportsmanship shown by every crew throughout the event.

A huge thank you to everyone who took part, supported the racing and helped make it such an enjoyable spectacle for competitors and spectators alike. 🚣‍♀️🐉💙

Congratulations to all our winners, and we hope to see you back on the water next year!
