"I think Griffith and West Wyalong will be the teams to beat again.
"We've got a few new faces this year as well, which is really good."
The matches this weekend will both be played at the Leeton Indoor Stadium.
Women's captain Maddy Clyne said her side had enjoyed several solid training hit outs and were now ready to get their season underway.
She also believed Griffith and West Wyalong would be the two sides to beat.
"I've just had the team sheets through for the Griffith women's side and it's as strong as we expected it would be ... we really want to get the season off to a good start with two wins," Clyne said.
"We've got a couple out on Friday night, but I'm confident we will be okay. We just need to worry about our game."
