Association selectors have picked their final 13 to play against an invitational Canberra outfit.
Charles Aggenbach revealed that young representative stars would feature including Janet King to captain the Far South Coast team, while Jessie Mudaliar and Jade Allen would play pivotal roles.
On Monday Mr Aggenbach said the selectors were "really excited by the list we've got" they were just waiting to confirm availability before naming the full squad.
But those names were confirmed Monday night and the full 13-woman-roster has been announced on the association's Facebook page.
Libby Harley and Jemma Pollock would round out the inclusions from Eden.
The competition leading Tathra outfit has been rewarded with five selections including Jade.
Sharna Mitchell and Tyjana Blacka will line up alongside team-mates Dakota Taylor and Yasmin Welsford for the clash.
Meanwhile, South Euro will also feature with three inclusions with Mel Triffen, Talia Moreton-Stewart and Rachael Kincaid.
Janet will be the solitary inclusion from the Kameruka outfit.
Despite facing an experienced Canberra outfit, Aggenbach said the locals might match up better than they think.
"We've been talking with the coaches of the girls' teams and I think they will shock themselves with their skill level [when they face Canberra].
"We're thrilled with the development we've seen after just five weeks of the season."
Aggenbach said the association was also pleased their Cricket ACT counterparts were on board with the plan to bring a rep clash down the coast.
"It's wonderful to be able to bring this rep opportunity for the women's cricketers down here," he said.
More details about the game will be announced later.
At a zone association meeting over the weekend, the women's comp generated a lot of interest given the quick and successful launch.
"It illustrated our association is in front in terms of delivering competitions and providing what players want," Mr Aggenbach said.
He said some of the results had been surprising and that - with one round to play - there was still a chance for any of the four teams to secure a finals berth depending on the last round results.
"It should be an extremely competitive grand final in a few weeks," he said.
A resurgence in local cricket was also heralded as a strong sign for the coast with a better per capita involvement than in some much larger regions.
"We have about half the population of some areas, but more involvement," Mr Aggenbach said.
