RSL-Colts have only dropped one match this season across the Friday night and Saturday afternoon competitions.
RSL-Colts skipper Marty Jeffrey admits there is a strong feeling around the group.
"This year with the T20 competition being a part of Whitney Cup a few of our older blokes have put their hand up to play again and we seem to be enjoying ourselves on and off the field together," Jeffrey said.

Although Souths have struggled for much of the season so far but Jeffrey isn't taking them lightly.
"They (Souths) are a bit of a smokey side, they are coming off a nice win a few weeks ago against Newtown and it only takes one or two players to fire with the bat or ball in Twenty20s and the game can change but if we play to our gameplan we should do well," Jeffrey said.
Highly-touted youngster Anthony Atlee is someone who Jeffrey feels will fire in the second half of the season after a solid representative carnival and first few innings' post Christmas.
"Ant Atlee has really put his hand up this year in the middle order for us and I think he will have a big second half of the year, he is crucial for us because of how busy he is and he flies under the radar a bit because he has guys like Mitch (Bower) and Brad (Cox) with him, but he is capable of scoring 50 off 40 balls and taking us to 180 or 200." Jeffrey said.
In the second match of the evening, CYMS Cougars will be looking to bounce back after a poor weekend last week against a tough Rugby side.
CYMS welcome back hard-hitting all-rounder Lachlan Strachan who returns for his first match since the Christmas break and will likely be relied on to contribute with both bat and ball.
Rugby have one both their T20 games this season and will be looking to make it three in a row on Friday.
Ben Wheeler and Jacob Hill are key players with the bat, while youngster Darcy Chewings scored 83 last time Rugby and CYMS met.
The first match of the double header starts at 5:30pm on Friday.
