DBNSW Athlete Pathway - Paddlers
The Dragon Boat NSW Athlete Pathway is designed to support athletes at every stage of their journey, from entry-level participants to those aiming for elite competition. Inspired by the AusDBF Athlete Pathway and aligned with the FTEM Framework (Gulbin, Croser, Morley & Weissensteiner, 2013), this pathway provides a structured approach to nurturing talent and fostering excellence within our dragon boat community.
Building upon the principles of the FTEM model—Foundations, Talent, Elite, and Mastery—this pathway reflects the national AusDBF framework while embracing the unique opportunities available in NSW. Whether you are just starting your dragon boating adventure or striving for international success, the Dragon Boat NSW Athlete Pathway offers the guidance and support you need to achieve your goals.
