We are incredibly grateful too Woolworths for their generous support of the UniSC Athletics annual Winter Carnival. With the help of the $1,000 Woolworths Sports Grant, @woolworths_au,  club was able to recognize the hard work of our 40 dedicated volunteer officials who ensure that our events run smoothly and on schedule.

Thanks to this grant, we provided our officials with a wholesome fresh lunch, including fruit, a variety of snacks, and an assortment of drinks. The wraps were a particular highlight, with many officials commenting on how delicious they were!

This financial support has not only allowed us to honour the invaluable contributions of our volunteers but has also helped us channel resources towards enhancing the athletic experience for our local club athletes.

We are thankful for Woolworths’ commitment to supporting community sports and making events like the Winter Carnival possible! 

We would like thank the Sunshine Coast Airport Community Support Fund for their generous $1,000 grant that enabled us to purchase a hammer trolley and new hammers for our UniSC Athletics club.

Hammer throw is a challenging Olympic event, and our some of our talented throws athletes are eagerly working towards their goal of competing in the 2032 Olympics.

The ability to store and transport our heavy hammer implements has previously posed significant challenges. With the new trolley, our volunteer officials will no longer need to carry the hammers from the storage facility to the throwing cage, making it easier for them to support our athletes. Additionally, the new equipment, will greatly benefit our athletes as they train and prepare for competitions.

Thank you once again for your support. Your contribution is making a meaningful difference in the lives of our athletes and the growth of the sport within our community.

UniSC Athletics wants to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Sunshine Coast Council’s Grant Program for their $7,500 grant.

The council’s support plays a crucial role in our planning for the upcoming 2032 Olympics.

As a club we are committed to providing our local Sunshine Coast athletes with the best possible equipment to give them a competitive edge. Thanks to this grant, we were able to invest in state-of-the-art electronic starting equipment, including a set of four mobile loudspeakers and an electronic starting gun. This equipment meets World Athletics standards and will significantly enhance our training and competition experience.

Your contribution not only helps us improve our facilities but also motivates our athletes to strive for excellence. We are excited about the future and the possibilities that lie ahead for our talented athletes.
