  • In the Community 2019 SEASON 3 REVIEW COMMUNITY CONNECT Striking the Coast
    In the community 2019 SEASON 3 REVIEW COMMUNITY CONNECT Striking the Coast When Sunshine Coast Lightning (Lightning) was established three years ago as a joint venture between Melbourne Storm Rugby League Club and the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC) as part of the Suncorp Super Netball (SSN) national league, one of its core values was to be a team for the community. As the only regional team in the SSN competition, the Club is in a unique position to create something extra special and involve the community at all levels. The Club has worked hard to live by this value and integrate across many facets of the Sunshine Coast region. From community appearances to partnering with local business and supporting local events and groups, there are so many connection points that have already been touched along the way. You’d be hard pressed to find a local who hadn’t heard of Lightning in one way or another! Every interaction with Lightning contributes towards building community foundations. That’s a large part of the team’s overall success – Lightning respects and appreciates all that the community has done to help support its growth, especially those who have been on the journey since the beginning. And that journey is quite an incredible one. In three short years Lightning has made three grand final appearances, winning back-to-back Premierships in 2017 and 2018, as well as being awarded Minor Premiers in 2019, making it the most successful start-up professional sporting team in Australian history. As highly visible members of the community, Lightning players, coaches and staff understand their unique position and aspire to make a positive contribution.
