For over 55 years, the Sunshine Coast Sports Annual Awards have honoured the outstanding achievements of those in our local sporting community.

All finalists and winners being celebrated at the 2025 Annual Awards will be joining an illustrious list of previous Sunshine Coast Sports Award Finalists, including Grant Kenny (Surf Life Saving), Ian Baker-Finch (Golf), Glenice Nunn-Cearns (Athletics), Clint Robinson (Paddling), Pat Rafter (Tennis) and Grace Brimelow (Paralympic Triathlon), just to name a few.

The event promises to be a night to remember with special guest speakers, sponsor stand displays, Award winners being announced across 11 categories and of course the naming of the Senior and Junior Sport Stars of the Year for 2025.

We look forward to your company from 5.15pm, sharing complimentary grazing plates (and drinks available purchase from the bar), mixing with athletes and sponsors in one of the Sunshine Coast's most spectacular roof top event spaces.

At 6pm formal proceedings will commence and together we'll recognise the local athletes, coaches, sporting teams, clubs, volunteers, officials and sporting events that achieved great things over the last 12 months.

We thank all our sponsors for their valuable support and involvement in the Sunshine Coast Sports Annual Awards.
