Crows come off a comprehensive loss to Kingston City Rollers, 258 to 119, on August 27.
Crows hope to bounce back and have their skills tested on a more level playing field next week.
“We don’t expect to win, but they’re more on our level,” Crows spokeswoman Holly Wright said
“I will be more of an even match.”
The Canberra-based teams will provide officials, and the Crows will bring a ‘freshie’, a newly-recruited member, who will join the officials in assisting with the bouts.
Crows will enter the bout rested; they don’t train during school holidays.
The action in early October will help in training for the Bendigo Rebellion on October 29-31.
The Crows will compete in a pool of six in the intensive tournament.
