On September 21, the "Chinese Dragon All the Way-Competitive Dragon Boat Release Ceremony" was held at the Shunyi Olympic Water Park in Beijing. Competitive dragon boats conforming to Olympic standards were unveiled for the first time at this event and tested in the water.
The launch of the competitive dragon boat indicates that the pace of the dragon boat’s entry into the Olympics is significantly accelerating. This is also another positive progress that has been made since BYD became a "strategic partner for the dragon boat entry into the Olympics."
In 2010, the dragon boat entered the Asian Games as an official event.
At present, the 2020 Tokyo Olympics has also designated dragon boats as an official performance event.
