Sports field closures
Find details of field closures at council managed precincts
The Sunshine Coast has several sporting fields across the region. The community, sports clubs, or schools use these fields.
Closed fields must not be used. Schools, clubs, groups and persons who use the fields against council's advice are reminded that should they cause damage to the playing surface, they may be liable for fines and/or cost for any damage caused.
Community sporting clubs
The community sporting clubs have an agreement with council to use the facilities. Volunteers manage and maintain these clubs.
Community sporting clubs are not-for-profit. They endeavor to keep their sports fields open to the public when the fields aren't being used for club purposes.
At times fields may need to be closed due to wet weather, maintenance or field renovations. The club managing the venue has the right to close fields . For details of current sports field closures at any of the not-for-profit managed sporting grounds, please contact the club direct. Council may have the site you’re interested in listed on the Community Sports Facilities page directory. Most Sunshine Coast community sport clubs have web pages and/or Facebook accounts for you to get in touch.
