Kawana SC

Kawana Soccer Club was established in 1979 with members from the disbanded Henzell Park Rangers club. Les Hankin took on the job of President while his wife Sue became Secretary/Treasurer. They obtained the services of long-time soccer leader Fin McColm, to act as Councillor. Kawana Estates Pty Ltd provided valuable financial support in the first year and continued to back the club in the ensuing years. In 1991 Kawana soccer moved to the new Kawana Sport Complex. The club moved again, to the western fields in 2006, which is where they still are today.

The 1992 Kawana side was coached by Ken Mclean, and after a successful season finished the league in third spot behind the dominant teams in the early 1990s of Buderim and Beegees.

It took until 1997 for Kawana to make their next grand final. Between 1997 and 2006 Kawana went on to win five Premierships, six league titles, three cups and three charity shields. Since 2006, Kawana has won 2 more league titles in 2012 and 2014, won the cup in 2014 also runners up in the cup 2012 and 2013. The club was also grand final runners up in 2012 and 2014 and after a nine-year wait, won the premier league grand final in 2015, the first to be held at the Sunshine Coast Stadium. Kawana FC enjoyed success in 2019 with a 4-0 Grand Final victory over Nambour Yandina United, led by 1st team coach Brad Lloyd and retiring Club Captain, Luke Ricketts.
