By Kirra Livingstone

The Landsborough Museum’s newest exhibition is the Grassroots to Glory Bounce, celebrating local sporting clubs.

This exhibition allows people to discover the history of local ball sports, with memorabilia from a range of Sunshine Coast clubs on display.

One of the clubs involved is the Sunshine Coast Goannas, which is an Indigenous representative football club, shining a light on the best Indigenous players in the region.

The Sunshine Coast Council described the exhibition as a celebration of local sporting stories.

“Ball sports are some of the most loved games in the world,” they said.

“Whether it is the supporters cheering from the sidelines, pivotal sporting moments or the innovation that got us here, each object has a story to tell.”

The exhibition opened on Saturday, May 17 and will be available to view until Sunday, August 3.

The Landsborough Museum is located at 4 Maleny Street, Landsborough from Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 3pm. Entry is free.
