On May 25, with the approach of this year’s Dragon Boat Festival, the 14th Shanghai Region and 2st Yangzi River Delta HEIs International Students Dragon Boat Race was held. Dragon boat racing is highly dependent on teamwork – every racer has to coordinate with each other in paddle frequency, speed as well as distance.
