The squad will take on the in-form Eden squad, which defeated the Bulls last Saturday.
Spokesman for the Bulls Dave Allen said the club had learnt a lesson from watching Eden win last year’s Twenty20 final against Tathra.
“The lesson to be learnt is that even thought it’s at Kameruka, which is a small ground ... score off every ball rather than belting fours and sixes,” Allen said.
After suffering a loss to Eden’s explosive batting line-up on Saturday, Allen said the Bulls would respond by switching up their bowling.
“You look to execute with your bowling, we’ll keep the ball up, bowl the slower balls and the yorkers - trying to mix it up,” Allen said.
“Every ball is a contest - it’s a boiled down contest and every shot is crucial.”
The final will feature a full day of cricket as the under 14s play in a north versus south format from 9am.
The Far South Coast Cricket Association’s southern clubs will combine some of their best young talent to take on those from the northern clubs.
Then at noon, the day will feature a C grade fixture for under 20s players.
Allen said last year featured B and C grade Twenty20 finals, but this year the lower grades opted for a longer one-day series.
Allen said the two matches will be “serious”, but also provide spectators a bit of fun with excellent forecasts for the day.
The final includes free entry for all spectators and the Kameruka club will be running a barbecue and drinks.
Matches start from 9am, the A grade Twenty20 final starts at 3pm at Lord’s View Oval, Kameruka, tomorrow.
