Grassroots Country Style Footy … by the Beach!

In 2009, a group of alert & experienced Sunny Coast AFL club administrators & coaches identified the Pacific Paradise / Mudjimba area as one of the fastest growing areas on the Sunshine Coast, & it wasn’t long before it was recognised that there was a need to reintroduce Aussie Rules football back into the local area. In short, the North Shore Multi Sports complex was ear marked as an ideal location, an implementation committee was formed, & after some pretty healthy negotiation a user agreement was signed to operate our new club in the current location... our home ground! We like to call it, grassroots country style footy... by the beach!

That was back in 2009 & we’re proud to say that in our first year we competitively fielded a team in all junior age groups. Women’s AFL didn’t exist on the coast believe it or not (Hasn’t the world changed?) & in our short existence since - we’ve won 3 local premierships! Needless to say, a great club culture was created from the get-go!

With the huge new movement towards women in sport (Gender Equality) & the mental & physical health epidemic engulfing our youth (The healthy balance of getting outside - physically active & away from technology where possible), North Shore Jets AFL Club is now the Sunshine Coasts first '& possibly Australia’s first’... Juniors (boys & girls) & Women’s only (Seniors) AFL Club.

We’re a club that lives & breathes by our core values & we’ve maintained a culture that people can relate to & want to be a part of. It was pretty simple really, as it is our members - committee - players & coaches that created them to begin with... ie: our own local community just like you!

LPE are proud to sponsor the North Shore Jets Junior AFL Club.
