Elite training and competition in Queensland

The Queensland Government invites you to come and inspect our world-class sporting facilities supported by excellent accommodation options and related services.

To help your team prepare for success, the Government can deliver opportunities, advice and support to ensure your team is in optimum condition leading into competition.

With more than 100 state sporting organisations, Queensland has a strong focus on developing specialised and tailored facilities for all Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games sports.

The Queensland Government has also built strong partnerships with accommodation providers, sports service providers, sport and recreation organisations, private sports providers and local governments across the State all designed to enhance your experience of training and competing in Queensland.
