NUS Dragonboating is a CCA which, garners alot of respect once you joined them, somehow.For the males, you get in a better shape than you probably were back in NS, plus a deep, dark tan. If you're worried that all they ever do is upper body training, fret not, because they do alot of sprints and runs.
