3️⃣rd most common injury

👨 Men: wrist and hand
👩 Women: ankle, foot and toes

Why might this happen?

For the men, one possible explanation is excessive gripping with the bottom hand. Holding the paddle too tightly, especially while producing high force, may create repeated stress through the fingers, hand and wrist.

For the women, my main theory involves foot positioning and stability in the boat.

Depending on body size, seat position and boat setup, some paddlers may have more difficulty creating stable contact with the foot support. This could lead to:

• Gripping with the toes for stability
• Keeping the ankle in an awkward position
• Repeatedly pushing through a poorly supported foot
• Producing a lot of leg drive without a stable base

These are only possible explanations, not proven causes.

But it shows that dragon boat injuries are not only about the shoulders and back. How you grip the paddle and how your feet connect to the boat also matter.

🌪️More rotation 🌪️

“More rotation” can be a useful coaching cue.

But as both a coach and a physiotherapist, I also want to know where that rotation is coming from.

Is the athlete rotating well through the thorax and hips?

Or are they forcing the movement through the lower back, shoulder, or another area?
