Events and Everyday Community Use

The Sunshine Coast Sports and Recreation facility consists of a multi-purpose Hall with 2 full sized netball courts, badminton and Fuse ball. The facility also has a Cafe, first aid rooms, large changing facilities for visiting teams and an administration centre. A new car park and beach boardwalks were carefully integrated into the broader site masterplanning, improving accessibility while enhancing the visitor experience and connection to the surrounding coastal environment.

The facility is designed as a true multi‑use sporting precinct, the facility can host, whole-of-site sporting tournaments and competitions, school camps and structured education programs, sport training camps and performance clinics, meetings, conferences and community gatherings, and, weekend activities and family escapes.

Partnering with local providers, the precinct functions as a community hub, with regular hirers delivering classes, training sessions and group activities that bring the site to life year-round.

Accessibility is central to the design intent. The precinct is equipped with fully accessible facilities, accommodation and dining areas, supporting participation for people of all abilities. Using purpose-made universal harnesses and all‑terrain wheelchairs, beach and outdoor activities can be adapted to suit individual needs. Experienced instructors and operators are trained in modifying activities, ensuring every visitor has the opportunity to engage, participate and feel welcome.
