The Noosa Council area is expected to experience relatively small population growth to 2036 (additional
7,286 persons). Over time, this may increase the burden on existing sport and recreation facilities within the
Council area.
The Noosa population is ageing with this trend expected to continue. This suggests that there will be an
increasing need for sport and recreation activities to meet the needs of middle aged and ageing adults
(gentle exercise, walking, modified sport). Further, universal accessibility to all facility infrastructure will
become increasingly important.
Despite the ageing population, the proportion of children and teenagers aged 5 to 19 in the Noosa Council
area is relatively consistent with Queensland as a whole. This indicates that participation in structured
junior sport and recreation is likely to remain and there will continue to be a need to provide formal sport
and recreation opportunities for these age cohorts.
The household income profile for the Noosa Council area suggests a likely higher degree of price sensitivity.
Sport and recreation opportunities will therefore need to be affordable to maximise participation.
Of the sports on site:
• Football (soccer) and rugby league are two of the four field sports that feature in the top ten club-
delivered sports participated in by adults;
• Football (soccer), gymnastics, cricket and rugby league featured in the top 10 activities participated
in by Queensland children.
