About Us

The SCPC was formed in 1983 as the Sunshine Coast Paddlesports Club to enable Sunshine Coast kayakers to compete internationally including at the Olympic Games. Flat-water kayaking, both sprint and marathon remains the core function of the SCPC. Come-and Try days are conducted regularly. The club holds the Maroochy River Paddle annually.
