This will be the night before the start of the competition-proper.
The launch will be held at the group's major sponsor, the Wingham Services Club, Group Three chairman Wayne Bridge said.
Two local derbies will feature in the opening round of the new season. No senior football was played in Group Three last year because of concerns about COVID-19 protocols.
Taree City will host Old Bar at the Jack Neal Oval on Saturday April 10 while Port City meets Port Sharks at the Regional Stadium.
On Sunday April 11 Wingham tackles Forster-Tuncurry at Wingham while Wauchope hosts Macleay Valley.
This year will also feature the return of Camden Haven to senior football. The Eagles will play in the under 18s and women's league tag.
The season will be over 17 rounds, with the semi-finals starting on the weekend of August 28/29 and the grand final on September 19.
