Lachine Knock-Out
Presented every early June, the Lachine Knockout features 200 m and speed! Each team will race 2 qualifying heats and a unique to this event knock-out final. All sport teams will do “knock-out” finals (each round the team in last position will be eliminated, others go back to the start line until we can crown a winner). For the community teams, the knockout finals will be determined according to the number of teams registered.

The ideal occasion to gather everyone from the dragon boat community one last time before the cold days.
