Philippines national dragon boat team

The Philippines national dragon boat team is the national dragon boat team of the Philippines and represents the country in international dragon boat. There is an ongoing dispute between the Philippine Dragon Boat Federation and the Philippine Canoe Kayak Federation over which is the sole legitimate sporting body over the national dragon boat team. Philippine Dragon Boat Federation is a member of the International Dragon Boat Federation while the Philippine Canoe Kayak Federation is the recognized by the Philippine Olympic Committee. However, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) have stated that as a Full Member of Sportaccord (the World Union of International Federations) the IDBF is the only recognized world governing body for Dragon Boating. Therefore de facto the IDBF Members are the National Governing Bodies for Dragon Boating in their own Countries. The two organizations field their own dragon boat teams.[1]
