Killer Guppies Dragon Boat Team - Long Beach, CA
Killer Guppies (KG) started in 1999 as a dragon boat festival team. The following year, KG became a year-round non-profit club run entirely by volunteers under the Southern California Dragon Boat Club (SCDBC). The club grew in size, skill and into a respected competitive team, but still maintains its roots as a club in which anybody and everybody can fit. United by our love of competition, travel, and fun, we look forward to competing at high levels of paddling and continue to push to be the strongest paddling team we can be.

With the help of our coaches, our practices help team members master paddling technique, build strength and endurance, and improve cardiovascular fitness.
Paddlers
Our paddlers learn and master paddling technique, body movement and positioning. They work as a crew of 20 to propel the boat forward to the finish line. Practice, on and off the water, makes perfect.
