A Hibs side will travel to Harmsworth Park on Sunday 15 July (2pm kick-off) to commemorate Wick Academy’s 125th anniversary as a football club.
The team will mostly contain players from last season’s League and Cup winning Development Squad, as well as a handful of first-team players.
George Craig, Head of Football Operations, said: “When Wick contacted us and said they wanted us to be the side to commemorate their 125th anniversary it was flattering and hard to say no.
“This will be part of our pre-season preparations for the Development Squad, as well as a few first-team players in need of game time.
“We hope it is a fantastic day for their supporters and ours that make the trip up to the game.”
Further details will be announced in due course.
