With a capacity to seat 3,000 spectators, our fully air-conditioned arena provides a national standard experience for athletes and fans alike.
Our Olympic-standard, 10-lane, 50-meter heated pool is a haven for recreational swimmers as well as Olympic and Paralympic champions. Alongside this, we have a six-lane 25-meter pool, cold immersion and warm plunge pool, and aquatic recovery equipment, ensuring that our elite training ground meets the needs of all swimmers.

Outdoor hard courts are available for tennis, basketball, and netball, with night lighting provided for after-dark competition. Whether you're an athlete or a team, we invite you to experience our top-notch facilities, prime location, and accredited athlete support that sets us apart.
At the University of the Sunshine Coast Sport, we pride ourselves on supporting athletes and teams at the highest levels of sporting competition. Our rising champions achieve their personal best in sport, competition, and study, surrounded by the right expertise, people, and facilities. Our team of emerging and world-class sport and exercise scientists utilize the latest technology and facilities to harness the power of human movement, impacting fitness, performance, and recovery.
We offer a range of services including injury prevention testing, athlete periodization and programming, and strength and conditioning services. Our physical performance coaches (PPCs) provide individualized training and conditioning, required recovery, and overall load management to help high-performance athletes realize their full athletic potential.
Not only do we prioritize athletic success, but we also understand the importance of academic achievement. With the right support, you can succeed in both areas. Our exercise scientists use the science of human movement to help individuals improve their health and fitness while preventing common lifestyle diseases.
At the University of the Sunshine Coast Sport, you have the opportunity to combine core sport science courses with majors in journalism, management, marketing, public relations, tourism, leisure and event management, or sport and exercise nutrition. This unique combination equips you with the skills to become job-ready for a rewarding career.
We take great pride in our partnerships within the sporting community. As a proud Foundation Principal Partner of the Sunshine Coast's first national sports team, the Sunshine Coast Lightning, we provide them with a home base at the UniSC Arena. Additionally, we support the Sunshine Coast Thunder netball club, offering a stepping stone for netballers looking to progress from grassroots to professional netball.
Our commitment to high-performance extends beyond netball, as we are also the official Tertiary Education Partner of the Dolphins NRL, providing work-integrated learning opportunities for students and research opportunities for our academic staff.
We invite UniSC staff and students to join our free social sports program, where you can get fit, have fun, and make new friends. We also celebrate the athletes and administrators who make sport great, paying tribute to our local sporting champions.
At the University of the Sunshine Coast, we are proud to acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we live, work, and study. We pay our respects to local Indigenous Elders, past, present, and emerging, and recognize the strength, resilience, and capacity of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
As a member of the Regional Universities Network, we are committed to providing quality education and sporting opportunities to students in our region and beyond. Come and join us at the University of the Sunshine Coast Sport and unlock your full potential in both sport and academia.
