The Coast Games 2025 was a HUGE success!
On Sunday, April 13th, 2025, Central Coast Grammar School buzzed with excitement as it hosted the fourth annual Coast Games.
Coasties Magazine Co-Editor Tash was there to experience it first hand and following the big day, she caught up with the brains (and the brawn) behind The Coast Games – Peter Bray and Warwick ‘ Waz’ Jones – to reflect on the success of the event.
‘This year marked a significant milestone for us, not only with the number of competitors and spectators but we also expanded to include an outdoor event, which really took things to the next level‘, Pete shared.
Waz still can’t get over all the positive feedback from competitors and the community, ‘Everyone who competed on the day has given us such amazing feedback about their experience with this years event. The live DJ, the vendors, the weather – it all came together so well. We are already planning what our 2026 event will look like!‘

The day was split into two sessions: the men’s competition in the morning and the women’s in the afternoon, with teams of three taking part in four events in 3 hours. Both sessions saw an incredible turnout, with the number of competitors skyrocketing from 96 in the inaugural year to nearly 400 this time around. The energy was palpable, with participants, the crew and spectators alike feeling motivated and inspired by the community spirit that defined the day.
‘None of this is possible without the dedication and hard work of our volunteers. Their tireless efforts, enthusiasm, and unwavering commitment were the backbone of the Coast Games, ensuring everything runs smoothly and everyone feels welcome‘, Pete shared.

‘Our sponsors give us the ability to bring such a great event to life and we extend such gratitude to their support and partnership‘, Waz said.
Tash shared her experience with the boy saying, ‘Having been both a sponsor and volunteer for the 2025 event, I can honestly say how impressed I was by the energy, excitement and organisation of the day’.
With 2025 a clear success, The Coast Games 2026 is set to be event bigger and Coasties Magazine can’t wait to support it again!

Meet the Founders – The Brains and the Brawn Behind TCG
Local fitness enthusiasts Peter Bray and Warwick ‘Waz’ Jones are the driving force behind The Coast Games. What started as a vision to bring people together post-COVID and introduce them to competitive fitness has now become a must-attend event on the Central Coast fitness calendar.
Waz shares, “We started The Coast Games because we wanted to find ways to get people together again post-COVID and introduce people to the idea of competitive fitness. The support from so many great local businesses is mind-blowing, and we love how the day has become a bit of a festival with food trucks, retail vendors, and, of course, hundreds of spectators.”

Pete sees community as key to The Coast Games’ success. “What has been so amazing is the contribution of our volunteers, who are the real stars of the show in terms of bringing such a great experience to life for the competitors on the day. The growth and such positive feedback from competitors is what keeps us motivated to make The Coast Games truly a landmark fitness event for the Central Coast.”

From Humble Beginnings to the Biggest Year Yet
Since launching in 2022, The Coast Games has grown into one of the most anticipated fitness events in the region. What started with just 96 competitors and 200 spectators at Kincumber Indoor Sports has exploded into a massive community-driven event.
In 2023, the competition welcomed 240 athletes (with a waitlist of over 100!) and drew in more than 300 spectators. Then in 2024, TCG outgrew its original venue and moved to Central Coast Grammar School, where 330 competitors and 500+ spectators filled the space with energy, passion, and an undeniable love for fitness.
And now? 2025 is set to be their biggest year yet! They’re expecting 400+ competitors to go head-to-head, pushing their limits in a fun, safe, and accessible format designed for all fitness levels. But this isn’t just about the athletes—spectators will experience a festival-style atmosphere, complete with retail stalls, food trucks, on-site activations, and live equipment demonstrations. It’s an event not to be missed.
