My Experience As a Blind Dragon Boat Paddler

Suleman is standing near a waterfront, at a dragon boat event. He is wearing a black t-shirt and a red cap while holding a medal in his hand. In the background, there are boats, water, and a crowd of people who seem to be engaged in a competitive activity.

I am Suleman Arshad, a visually impaired individual who moved to Canada in 2022. Sports have always been a passion of mine, so when I arrived in Montreal, I started looking for activities that would keep me active and engaged. That’s when I first heard about Dragon Boat racing.
