Gundagai's Hogan Cup is one of the longest running cricket competitions in the state with 127 years on the board.

Flakelar said in recent years Junee had been one of the competition's powerhouses with four wins over the past decade.

"We won the minor premiership last year and were straight into the grand final, but we played our worst game on the day," Flakelar said.

While Junee had two Hogan cup teams last year - the Stallions and the Colts - this year just one team would be aiming for glory.

"Hopefully we will be a bit stronger this year," Flakelar said.

One of Junee's younger players, Smith made his debut in the competition last year and is keen to return to the field.

The Stallions will face three strong Gundagai sides for the Hogan Cup and a mid-season Twenty20 competition.

While winning is the aim, Flakelar said it was just about having a bit of fun and helping out some of the town's junior players.

It was expected both Trent Charlton and Owen Gill would also return to play for the Stallions, he said.

"It's a pretty relaxed competition," Flakelar said. "We haven't got a coach, we'll be practising our skills on our own initiative.

"It'd be great to get everyone down to training on September 30."
