The committee had this to say:

We are especially proud of this recognition. It’s incredibly rewarding to be acknowledged by both our competitors and the members of the ABCRA for the hard work and dedication we put into our events. Our committee works tirelessly, year after year, to ensure that each event is better than the last, always striving for improvement and growth. This achievement wouldn’t be possible without the support of everyone involved, and we are truly grateful. Thank you!

Oberon Tigers

The season hasn't started yet, but both men's and women's senior teams have started training, and the juniors are building their teams. Exciting times ahead.

Oberon United Football Club

Everyone is getting ready for the 2025 season, with registrations in full swing. And of course, the 2024 senior ladies team won Sports Team of the Year at the Australia Day awards.

Progress on the grounds

Work is continuing on both the Oberon Sports Complex and the O'Connell Recreation Ground to ensure that the area has the best facilities for sports in the future.

That's starting to look like a grandstand at Oberon.

The roof is up on the amenities block at O'Connell.

Max Honoured

Year 10 student Max Meredith had an incredible weekend in January, being recognised for his outstanding achievements in sport. At the official Australia Day awards held at the Oberon Library & Community Centre, Max was named Sportsperson of the Year. That same weekend, he competed at the 2024 National Finals Rodeo in Tamworth, where he was crowned Australian Champion Under 14 Steer Rider. Max then travelled from Tamworth to Taralga Rodeo where he won the Junior Bull ride. This remarkable achievement highlights his talent, perseverance and passion for rodeo. Congratulations Max!
