The mission, held in close collaboration with the Bahamas Dragon Boat Federation, focused on strengthening partnerships, expanding the sport, and creating new opportunities for the dragon boat community across the region.<\/p>\n<p>During his visit, President Schermi, together with Meri Gibson, President of the International Breast Cancer Paddlers Commission (IBCPC), John Bostwick II, and Kay Kay Tong, President of the Bahamas Dragon Boat Federation, met with key national and international stakeholders, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mario Keith Bowleg, Minister of Youth, Sports and Culture of The Bahamas, to discuss opportunities for youth and sports development.<\/li>\n<li>Zhang Hongliang, Charg\u00e9 d\u2019Affaires of the Chinese Embassy in The Bahamas, to foster cooperation with the Chinese community and accelerate dragon boat development, with special emphasis on Breast Cancer Paddlers and international events.<\/li>\n<li>Permanent Secretary Lisa Anderson and Director General Latia Duncombe at the Ministry of Tourism, to explore the economic and social benefits of dragon boat events, particularly their role in sport tourism and community engagement.<\/li>\n<li>The Bahamas Olympic Committee leadership, including President Romell Knowles, Vice Presidents D\u2019Arcy Rahming and Roy Colebrook, and Secretary General Derron Donaldson, to celebrate the achievements of the Bahamas Dragon Boat Federation and explore the creation of a permanent base for dragon boat in the country.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The visit concluded with an informal meeting with Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis, reaffirming The Bahamas\u2019 role as a vibrant new partner in the global dragon boat movement.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cDragon boat is more than a sport \u2014 it is a bridge between cultures, communities, and opportunities,\u201d said President Schermi. \u201cThe Bahamas has shown extraordinary commitment and vision, and together we are opening a new chapter for the growth of dragon boat in the Caribbean and beyond.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Echoing this commitment, Kay Kay Tong, President of the Bahamas Dragon Boat Federation, and Vice President John Bostwick II highlighted how the week\u2019s meetings with the Bahamas Olympic Committee, government leaders, and tourism partners underscored the nation\u2019s readiness to embrace dragon boating. \u201cThese milestones mark the beginning of The Bahamas stepping forward as a central hub for dragon boating in the Americas,\u201d they affirmed.<\/p>\n<p>For the IBCPC, the visit also represented the continuation of a journey that began in 2022. \u201cIBCPC is delighted to have played such a meaningful role in the growth of dragon boat paddling in The Bahamas,\u201d said Meri Gibson. \u201cWe first brought an outreach clinic here to introduce the health and wellbeing benefits of paddling, particularly for the medical community, even before the first boats had arrived. The Americas are a strategic region for breast cancer paddling, with half of our global teams based here, and with the high incidence of breast cancer in the Caribbean, this development is especially significant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With this successful mission, IDBF continues to strengthen its international presence, support member federations, empower Breast Cancer Paddlers, and build sustainable pathways for the future growth of dragon boat worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 25%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-4017 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https://dragonboat.b-cdn.net/https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-1.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https://dragonboat.b-cdn.net/https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-2.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-2-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https://dragonboat.b-cdn.net/https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-3.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-3-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https://dragonboat.b-cdn.net/https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-4.jpg'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/dragonboat.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/CS-bahamas-4-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>About the IDBF<br \/>\n<\/strong>The International Dragon Boat Federation (IDBF) is the global governing body for dragon boat racing.
