Introduction

Sunshine Coast Springboard and Platform Diving Inc (SCSPD), based at Kawana Aquatic Centre, is the region’s only springboard diving club. Established in 2021 and affiliated with Diving Queensland and Diving Australia, we deliver programs ranging from grassroots "Learn to Dive" through to State, National Age Group, and Elite levels, as well as inclusive recreational sessions for all ages and abilities.

As the only Queensland Academy of Sport (QAS) diving hub in the state North of Brisbane, SCSPD allows local athletes to train closer to home, reducing the burden of frequent travel and supporting a healthier balance between school, sport, and family life. We also host community competitions, including the Diving Queensland Community Cup, which strengthen participation, connection, and regional pride.

Inspiring Everyday

These projects will create a lasting impact by:

• Promoting active, healthy lifestyles: Diving offers a safe, low-impact sport that improves strength, flexibility, and confidence.
• Providing local access to opportunity: Families will no longer need to travel to Brisbane to participate in structured diving programs.
• Inspiring the next generation: The excitement and spectacle of diving—both recreational and competitive—encourages new participants and builds community pride.
• Fostering inclusion and connection: Through accessible programs for beginners, schools, adults, and people with disabilities.
• Contributing to the Brisbane 2032 legacy: Supporting the development of athletes and showcasing the Sunshine Coast as a hub for grassroots and high-performance sport.

By improving infrastructure, this project will inspire everyday participation while helping to develop future champions within their own community.

Thank you for your support.
