More than six points will be on the line for Keilor Park and Glenroy on Saturday in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association division 2 competition.
The two clubs will play for the inaugural Lane-Dorgan Shield in the recognition of Ian Lane and Kerri Dorgan.
The two are life members at both clubs.
Devils president Joe Carland said it was a pretty unique situation to have two player life members at two clubs.
“This will honour their commitment and effort to both clubs,” he said.
“Our committee spoke about it and there was a unanimous push and when we spoke to ex-players about what was happening, they thought it was a great idea.
“Ian has cooked something like 995 barbecues for the club and Kerri was treasurer for so many years.
“It would be remiss not to recognise them.”
Carland said the couple were shocked when they heard the news. They are set to be in attendance at the match.
He said they were hoping to make the match and the shield a regular occurrence in the future.
“It’s the first time we’ve played each other in 20 years,” he said.
“We will be making it a regular thing as long as we are in the same division.”
