Cairns June 4, 2022, Comments Off 34The Sunshine Coast Football Club is a rugby league team that competes in the Queensland Cup, the state’s premier competition. The team is currently the feeder club for the Christchurch Storm RL. The Sunshine Coast FC has been a professional team since 2007, and was formerly known as the Brisbane Roar. In 2009, the club signed a feeder club deal with the Manly Sea Eagles. It played under the name Sunshine Coast Sea Eagles for five years before reverting to its original name.

The Sunshine Coast FC was founded by Noel Woodall in 2007 and competed in the inaugural Queensland State League season. This league was designed to bridge the gap between the A-League and the regional leagues. They won the inaugural NPL Grand Final, and were relegated to the Premier League in 2009. The team is now led by Scottish-born Gareth Thomson, who had previously managed the club’s junior teams.
The Falcons have a strong defensive record and could break the 20-year-old Redcliffe Dolphins’ record if they win their final game at Dolphin Oval next Sunday. Their season started with turmoil, but they have since recovered to take the competition by storm. During this period, the Sunshine Coast FC will rest and prepare for the next round of matches. They face Central Queensland, the Maroochydore/Coolum Swans and the Kawana Dolphins.
