The Dueling Dragons of Orlando program is an unlikely partnership between inner-city teens and law enforcement officers from the Orlando Police Department, Orange County Sheriff's Office and the Orlando Fire Department who have joined forces to become a one-of-a-kind, mentoring, year-round dragon boat racing team.
Dueling Dragons' mission is to use the sport of dragon boating to form long-term mentoring relationships between Orlando's law enforcement officers and inner-city youth. Success in dragon boating comes only when everyone in the boat works together in complete harmony. In the process, stereotypes come down, profiles melt away, friendships are formed, and lives change for the better.
— Buddy Dyer, Mayor of Orlando
