UK Dragon Boat Coach Wins Award

From the UK, birthplace of such distinctive sports as cricket, curling, and croquet, comes a delightful recognition of dragon boat racing as a serious sport. See this article the British Dragon Boat Racing Association site:

"John Griffiths, GB Premier Women’s Dragon Boat Team Coach has been awarded "The Coaching Hall of Fame: Mussabini Medal" by Sports Coach UK for his contribution to dragon boat racing as a high performance coach to the GB Women. This is a significant achievement for John and the sport and shows that we are now being finally considered as a serious sport by the rest of the sporting fraternity."
