The Wolves are heading to Lake Cargelligo on Sunday in a bid to bring home the Creet Cup.
The Creet Cup is a challenge series, meaning if Leeton defeats Lake Cargelligo on the weekend, they will bring home the trophy and hold it until the next challenge.
Griffith are then next in line to challenge for the silverware against whoever comes away with it on Sunday.

The Wolves are being led by Jordan Camm, who will captain a youthful side, with many new names making an appearance.
While the side is quite young, there's no doubting there's plenty of talent in the mix.
Camm is hopeful that would hold Leeton in good stead on Sunday.
"I think it's a pretty well-rounded side," he said.
"We bowl ridiculously deep and our batting goes pretty deep as well.
"I'm really happy with the team that has been selected."
Two Leeton District Cricket Association board members, as well as Camm, sat down together to select the side.
"We've tried to keep it fair by selecting guys from each of the three teams in the senior competition," Camm said.
"I think that works well and we've come up with a really good side.
"We might be young, but I think it's a good thing for cricket."
Lake Cargelligo will be a formidable opponent for the Wolves, but Camm is confident Leeton will be able to get the job done. "We just need runs on the board ... it's going to be a good experience for our side," he said. "We definitely want to win."
