Since then, PA has grown into a multi-team organization involving dynamic individuals from various Canadian universities and the Greater Toronto Area workforce. Are you looking for a sport that’s fun, challenging, and gets you on the water? Join DaCatch – a competitively focused recreational dragon boat team!
