Amber Farley will play her 250th senior game and Min Seignior will play her 150th senior game.
The Rams host Barooga at Deni’s Hardinge St Oval.
Farley will take to the court in B-grade from noon, while Seignior will line up for A-grade from 1.30pm.
Farley played all her junior netball with the Deniliquin Netball Association (DNA) and was coached by Val Keech.
Her mother, Margaret Marshall, said Amber “was always very determined and competitive on court, from a young age”.
“While at Rams she travelled home every weekend from Wagga (where she attended uni) to play.”
Rams veteran player turned coach Jodie Sefton said Farley was a "key member of the Rams A-grade team that dominated the Murray League in the mid 2000s“.
“The Rams rivalry with Cobram and Nathalia during this period was highly enthralling, however it was Amber’s relationship with the Cobram defenders that was most memorable,” she said.
“Never short on conversation, Amber loved giving advice to her opponent, all while never missing a beat in play.
“Amber has earned many personal accolades during her time at the Rams, however her four A-grade premierships would certainly be her proudest achievements.”
Farley returned to Rams netball after having her children, playing a year in C-reserve, then then C-grade last year and is playing B-grade this year.
As for Seignior, Sefton said “every successful sporting team needs a Min”.
“She is the ultimate team player, highly talented, gutsy, supportive and incredibly modest,” she said.
“Having enjoyed personal success over many years - winning a league B&F and multiple club B&Fs, it was the 2022 A-grade premiership that completed Min’s trophy cabinet.”
