WPA Dragon Skills Award Scheme

Junior Development Pathway

Dragon Skills Award Scheme

Juniors start their journey by mastering the fundamentals of the sport, earning the White Dragon Award as their first milestone. They then progress through Green, Red, and finally Gold Dragon Awards, each level representing a new stage of growth and development.

The Red and Gold Dragon awards focus on honing skills and achieving high consistency, essential for national and international competitions. These levels are achieved over time, allowing young players to grow as they gain experience.

Except for the Gold Dragon Award, each comprises two parts, Part 1 and Part 2, which are both completed to achieve the full award and allow progression to the next award level.

The detailed requirements for each level can be found by clicking on the appropriate Dragon to open the online version of the syllabus or by clicking one of the buttons below to download a printable version.
