Ocean Grove & Barwon Heads swap home games

Barwon Heads and Ocean Grove have confirmed hosting arrangements for two key matches for the upcoming season, with venue changes required due to upcoming infrastructure works.

Barwon Heads will host the Round 11 match on Saturday, 13 June at Howard Harmer Oval, providing the club with the opportunity to play at home before major redevelopment works commence.

Ocean Grove will then host the Round 20 match on Saturday, 22 August at Shell Road Recreation Reserve.

Barwon Heads Football Netball Club’s facilities are scheduled to undergo significant reconstruction from mid-June 2026. As a result, the club will not have access to its rooms from that point onward, creating logistical challenges in hosting home games for the remainder of the season.

The adjusted venue arrangements ensure continuity of the competition while allowing essential facility upgrades to progress.
