Our People
UQ Sport is a passionate and energetic organisation employing more than 200 staff. Our inclusive workplace culture promotes fun, well-being and flexibility. Our values are: achieve your personal best; empower and inspire; find the fun; and make your actions count.
What We Do
We’re home to some of Queensland’s finest sporting and recreation facilities.
Every week, we welcome thousands of people to our venues and facilities across our St Lucia and Gatton campuses. Our Membership base spans more than 4,000 customers, with a further 7,000 people actively involved across UQ’s 35+ affiliated sporting clubs.
At St Lucia, you’ll find Athletics, Aquatic, Tennis and Fitness Centres, as well as a selection of grass and synthetic playing fields, indoor and outdoor courts, function spaces, and retail outlets – including the UQ Shop and our BrewPoint café locations.
Our Gatton campus features a Fitness and Aquatic Centre, with playing fields, tennis, basketball, netball, and squash facilities also available.
UQ Sport also supports more than 200 elite-level student-athletes – including Sporting Scholarship recipients – helping them balance the demands of sport and study.
Our Home
UQ Sport acknowledges the Traditional Owners and their custodianship of the lands on which we operate.
We pay our respects to their Ancestors and their descendants, who continue cultural and spiritual connections to Country.
We recognise their valuable contributions to Australian and global society.
UQ Sport works closely with the UQ ATSIS Unit to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students on campus. All profits from UQ Shop’s Reconciliation Collection are donated to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander student scholarships and programs at UQ.
