The Rhinos under 12, 13, 14 and 15 sides are making the trip north to help prepare for the start of the Football NSW Regional Youth League in March.
Following the premiership success of the under 13s and 14s last season, Vecchio said the Rhinos had high expectations whenever they ran on the field.
“We enter every game with the aim of winning it outright,” he said.
“We expect all sides to make the quarter or semi-finals and get to the last three or four at the weekend.
“If we can do that, we’ll be very happy.”
The Rhinos last played at the start of the month in Griffith, where they dominated Cooma in trial matches.
Vecchio said the teams’ coaches would experiment with their line-ups in Bathurst to uncover their best elevens.
“They’ll use it to trial different players in different positions and get the team gelling before the regional league starts,” he said.
