Weekdays from 5pm


Welcome to the Sunshine Coast, one of the traditional

homes of surf lifesaving, for what I’m sure will be an

outstanding Queensland Championships for 2018.

This is one of our major events for our region this year as

thousands of competitors and spectators from around the state

– from Rainbow Bay to Port Douglas - join us for the juniors,

youth, opens and masters competitions, headquartered at two

of Australia’s premier beachside locations, Maroochydore and

Alexandra Headland.

Across 350 events and six days, we look forward to

witnessing inspirational efforts in the water and on the sand,

and admiring your tenacity, teamwork, sportsmanship and

dedication.

We are very proud of our community-focused Sunshine

Coast surf lifesaving clubs and their volunteer members who

are on our beaches protecting our residents and holidaymakers

each year.

If you’ve been a visitor to our region previously, I’m sure you

will be impressed by the great progress our healthy, smart,

creative Sunshine Coast has made in recent times.

Our new greenfield CBD is coming out of the ground in

Maroochydore, the Sunshine Coast University Hospital is open

at Kawana, the award-winning Sunshine Coast Solar Farm

is now delivering power into the electricity grid and work is

underway on our Sunshine Coast Airport expansion.

To all competitors, I wish you the very best of luck in

whichever events you have elected to contest.

And thank-you and congratulations to Surf Life Saving

Queensland, their partners, sponsors and volunteers for

helping to turn on such a wonderful event each year.

I look forward to watching the action.

It is great to be back at the Sunshine Coast for the 2018

Queensland Youth Surf Life Saving Championships. The

beach here at Alexandra Headland has always presented

challenges for our athletes and I'm sure these championships

will not disappoint.

The Youth Championships will see more than 1,600 junior surf

lifesavers from all corners of the state line up to compete across

three days of action. It's a great opportunity to test themselves

against some of Queensland's best young athletes. Importantly, the

skills they will demonstrate over the weekend are the exact same

lifesaving skills they have already learnt and honed through the

iconic Nippers movement.

Our lifesavers are involved in surf sports for fitness and

to be rescue-ready. Surf sports involvement continues to

give opportunities for our lifesavers, both young and old,

to experience personal development through meeting the

challenges of our wonderful sport. Coaches, parents and our

surf clubs small and large are to be congratulated for their

support. You are all mentors and motivators, thank you.

Best wishes to all for a successful Youth Championships.

Thank you to all volunteers and staff who will contribute to the

success of these Queensland Youth Championships on the

beautiful Sunshine Coast.

WELCOME

Things to do aroundALEXANDRA HEADLANDAND MAROOCHYDORE

After darkThe Sunshine Coast is home to a wide variety of sporting, music and cultural events that all show off the region’s diversity. With markets and music festivals on all year round, and an abundance of artistic community events that bring people together, there’s something for everyone to get involved in. From day time through to when the sun goes down, see what else is on offer in the region by visiting ourWhat’s On page.

Natural highlights The Sunshine Coast is a haven for natural wonders and outdoor adventure. Just a short drive away, lie secret gems amongst the hustle and bustle of the seaside towns. Mount Coolum provides spectacular views from above, while the Pumicestone Passage in Caloundra can be explored laterally. The Sunshine Coast Hinterland, home to the Glass House Mountains, has undulating hills and waterfalls that are ready to be explored on day trips.

Salty skinSunshine Coast beaches are quite simply some of the best in the world, rimmed with wide stretches of clean white sand and a choice of gnarly surf. From the refreshing waves of Kawana’s beaches to the spectacular coastal walks between Mooloolaba Beach and Alexandra Headland, you’ll be taken on a sparkling beach trail unlike any other.

Taste of the regionThe Sunshine Coast is one of Australia’s favourite taste destinations with a variety of producers, waterfront restaurants, wineries, food festivals, cooking schools, and farmers markets. Maroochydore’s Ocean Street is a local hot spot lined with live music venues, funky bars and eateries that offer delicacies celebrating the region’s local fresh produce.

Exciting experiences The fun continues as the Sunshine Coast offers bucket list experiences to tick off. With animal encounters, art trails and thrill-seeking activities, there’ll be something to please everyone. Explore the open ocean on jet skis or come eye-to-eye with Australia’s native wildlife on a laid back river cruise on the Maroochydore River.

Best brewsThe future is looking bubbly for the ever growing number of craft micro breweries in the region, all weaving their unique passion and flavours of the Sunshine Coast into their brews. Tucked away in Eumundi are various restaurants championing innovative beers and cocktails, it’s clear the region is a leader in reshaping traditional beverages.
