Two teenagers have been committed to trial over the alleged murder of a Sunshine Coast soccer coach.
Seven witnesses were cross-examined at the Maroochydore Children's Court.
The public prosecutions office will set the trial date.
Two Sunshine Coast teenagers charged with fatally stabbing a man in his home last year have been committed to face a jury trial in the Supreme Court in Brisbane.
They are charged with murdering 57-year-old soccer coach Zdravko Bilic at his Warana home in July 2025.
A 15-year-old West Woombye boy was arrested in Brisbane, while a 17-year-old Beerwah boy was arrested disembarking a bus in Toowoomba, before being charged with murder on July 17, 2025.
Now 16 and 18, the teens faced Maroochydore Children's Court on Friday.
Neither entered a plea nor made applications for bail.
The 18-year-old's lawyer Simon Lewis questioned four witnesses, three police officers, and a justice of the peace (JP).
Mr Lewis asked why his Indigenous client was not provided with the opportunity to talk to a support person of his choice on the evening he was arrested.
Mr Lewis told the court that police should have contacted his parents or guardians first, then family or a friend, before calling a support person from a list available at the police station.
