Co-ordinating the competition again in 2019 is Leeton's Maddy Clyne, who was expecting plenty of fierce games throughout.
"I think it's really going to be anyone's game this year in the men's and the women," she said.
"Having the double header to start it off will be good as well.
"It's really great to have West Wyalong involved again. It gives the competition a bit more of an edge."
Leeton will also be boosted by flash new uniforms for both their teams.
Clyne said both teams were shaping up well and were looking forward to a big season.
"For the women's, I know we've got a few players back and a good mix of youth as well," she said. "I'm pretty excited about it."
