A Place To Come Together - A Place To Feel At Home

Paddling the waters of Docklands, Melbourne you will find DAM Busters Breast Cancer Survivor Dragon Boat Club embracing life. A fun-loving group of survivors, thrivers and supporters who have been together since 2001 bonded by a common life experience – breast cancer.  

Over 22 years ago, Professor Don McKenzie answered one of the most asked questions by breast cancer survivors, “Is exercise safe after breast cancer surgery?” After many studies involving dragon boating specifically, his answer and ours is a categorical YES!  

Our mission is to be a voice for breast cancer awareness, to support survivors, acknowledge supporters and above all, have fun! We are PASSIONATE about life and paddle together to demonstrate that anyone can thrive after breast cancer. NO other sport makes us feel the way dragon boating does!  

We are Determined in spirit And Mighty of heart, Busting the myths surrounding exercise after breast cancer.  

It's time to get in the boat...

DAM Busters is a member group of International Breast Cancer Paddling Commission (IBCPC), Dragon Boat Victoria (DBV) and Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA).
