Trans-Tasman teams have also been named ahead of the series taking place between 27-30 August. The four teams named at the Secondary School Champs will play against Queensland and New South Wales State Secondary School teams from Tuesday - Thursday, and then against a combined Australian Secondary Schools side on the Friday.
