The Showgrounds Oval serves as a football ground in the winter. It is the home ground of the Wangaratta Football Club, and is one of the Ovens & Murray Football League's main two venues, alongside Lavington Sports Ground, Albury.〔 The venue secured the rights to host five Australian Football League pre-season games between 2012 and 2021; however, the first of those matches, to have been played between and in 2012, was cancelled after Essendon's chartered flights were unable to land in or near Wangaratta due to flooding throughout northern Victoria. The venue also hosted two matches in the 2005 Australian Football International Cup.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2005 International Cup - Fixtures/Results )〕
The venue also has a bicycle track, and floodlighting suitable for night matches. The oval was renamed the Norm Minns Oval in honour of Norm Minns, who played in four consecutive O&MFL premierships with Wangaratta from 1949–52, won another O&MFL flag as captain-coach of Benalla in 1953, and went on to the committees and selection boards for both the Wangaratta and the O&MFL interleague teams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2005 Inductees )〕
