Message from Claire Powell, Lamma Dragons Team Captain,
about their win of the Stanley cup on June 4, 2003:
"What an excellent end to the season for the Lamma Dragons, the Stanley cup which the ladies won in 1999 and 2001 has been brought home AGAIN! It was an excellent day and for a change, the weather was brilliant too. It has been a tough season .. made harder than usual by SARS when trying to make up numbers in the boat, attendance to training etc.. but we managed it !!
Stanley was our biggest race, with the internationals all cancelled, (we were going to return to Penang to race in their 25th International competition) we knew we had to bring home some silverware. The competition was tough, in both the men's and women's heats. Our men fought every paddle of the way and came overall 6th in the Expat A Class Cup final and 5th in the Chinese/Expat Joint Grand Plate Final. The ladies had 2 finals, they were hard and very very close, but EVERYONE dug in and found that TIGER STRENGTH and managed to pull just that little bit harder and keep going, and it was worth it, WE WON !!
For me personally I think it was probably one of the best days I have had paddling with the Lamma Dragons. The spirit and passion this team has is unbelievable, we NEVER give up. I would like to thank everyone for being such a brilliant team, thank you for all your support this season and THANK YOU for Stanley, you all deserve the best because WE ARE THE BEST !
Thanks very much !! We are a very happy Lamma.. our fishermen got first and second places at Aberdeen !!!"
