The Doomadgee Aboriginal Shire Council is a sports club located in Doomadgee Aboriginal Shire, Australia. This club is deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of the Gangalidda, Waanyi, Garrawa, and Yunjulla people, who have inhabited the lands for thousands of years. Many of the residents are Traditional Owners of the lands in this region, including the Gangalidda and Waanyi people, but there are also Garrawa and Yunjulla people, as well as individuals from various Indigenous nations across Australia who have made Doomadgee their home.

One of the key facilities offered by the Doomadgee Aboriginal Shire Council is the Doomadgee Youth and Music Hub. This hub is specifically designed for young people aged 15 to 25 to relax, socialise, and have fun with friends. The hub provides a range of activities and amenities such as table tennis, billiards, arts and crafts, painting, TV, movies, and a fully equipped internet space for up to six users.
