Day One: COOLUM BEACH

Coolum Beach Walking Football Inc. will host the 5th SUNSHINE COAST CUP on Saturday 19 September 2026. This year it will be played at the COOLUM  FC ground (next door to the fields used in previous years - see venue details). We believe this will offer an improved playing surface and better toilet/change room facilities. As per previous years, BBQ and Coffee facilities will be available and event t-shirts will be on sale. Trophies and medals will be presented afterwards in the Coolum F.C. clubrooms with full bar facilities.
