A Sunshine Coast schoolboy has been airlifted to hospital with a "serious eye injury" after a mishap with a javelin on Wednesday morning.
The teenager was carrying the javelin off the oval when the sharp end became caught in the ground causing the blunt end to flick into his eye, according to RACQ Lifeflight Rescue.
The patient was airlifted to Lady Cilento Children's Hospital in Brisbane by the Sunshine Coast-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue.
