We acknowledge and respect the City’s decision to cancel the 3rd Bugsay Balangay National Dragon Boat Competition.

Until further notice, Bugsay Balangay is on hold but not gone.

We will be back soon, stronger than ever. We are exploring ways to still mount an event this year.

Stay tuned. Stay ready.

Padayon, Paddlers. 💪🚣‍♂️

Every early training, every sacrifice, and every stroke on the water leads to this moment.

Last year, our event shirt became unforgettable for reasons we didn’t expect. The design was celebrated, but the delivery didn’t come through. It was a tough lesson, but one that pushed us to do better.

This year, we come back stronger.

Because for every paddler, the event shirt is more than just something you wear, it’s a symbol of pride, unity, and the friendships built along the river.

Now redesigned, improved, and backed by a trusted supplier that is reliable, intentional, and truly worth the wait.

In partnership with Paddle & Press Printing Services, we made sure every detail is secured and every promise is kept.

The most talked-about and highly anticipated event shirt is finally here, not just as a comeback, but as a statement.

We’re not just moving forward. We’re moving forward the right way.
