The Homers' Jett Hopper will play in the under 16 male side alongside Rup/Minyip's Bailey Young.

In the under 14 female team the Homers' Georgia Baker-Miller will represent the region.

Meanwhile, in the under 14 male side three players from the Horsham Cricket Association will play; the Homers' Joey Nagorka and Abhilasha Rodrigo, and Rup/Minyip's Connor Weidemann.

Homers junior coach Ash Hopper said it was a great opportunity for the young players to take their cricketing careers to the next level.

He is also the father of Jett Hopper.

"I'm very excited for them," he said.

"This is Jett's second representation (with Western Waves) - he was in the under 14s last year ... and he's also in the Vic Country squad.

"Jett started with the club when we first started our journey with the under 12s. That would have been maybe six years ago.

"Joey and Abhilasha have been with the club for about three or four years now.

"It's a good opportunity. It's a pathway for young cricketers. We had a few more go through the trials and they didn't get through, so we're very proud of them (the players who did).

"Hopefully they can keep developing their cricket."

Georgia Baker-Miller was a relative newcomer to the club who was already making waves, Hopper said.

"Georgia has only come to the club this year," he said.

The carnival runs across January, kicking off on the 13^th.

Hopper said the additional work wouldn't impact on the normal playing season.

"They'll be playing outside of the normal local draw," he said.

"It's mainly the big carnival around January, and I think there are a couple of lead up games."

Hopper was yet to tell his son, Jett, that he had made the cut.

"He's at private school in Ballarat and they do a term in King Island, so he doesn't even know yet," he said.

"Sunday we'll talk to him on the phone so we'll let him know then."
