Ongerup Association Sport returns to full capacity on Saturday in the 2021 winter season’s opening round.

OAS contains Ongerup Football Association, Ongerup Hockey Association, Ongerup Netball Association and Ongerup Junior Football Association. Winter sport in the association was interrupted by COVID-19 last year, ending up with a shortened season.

But a full 15-round home-and-away season and finals are being planned for this year.

Round one starts on Saturday, with Lake Grace-Pingrup hosting Jerramungup at Pingrup and Newdegate at home to Gnowangerup.
