    ABOUT Lucy Downey

    I have been selected to represent Australia at the 2025 World Dragon Boat Racing Championships (WDBRC) in Brandenburg, Germany as part of the “Auroras”  - Australian Dragon Boat National Team.


    Making selection into the team has been a huge achievement for me, and I have since been working hard to train and achieve my best. However, competing at an international level comes with significant costs. Dragon boating is a "pay to participate" sport, and to represent Australia at this event, paddlers must fund all expenses including selection camps, travel, accommodation, uniforms, paddles, etc. I am raising funds to help with all the costs of training and to get me to Germany.


    Your support can make a huge difference to this once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. Thank you for helping me on my journey!
