A quartet of future Mandurah Magic stars will lace up their kicks for the state at the 2019 Australian Junior Championships this April.
Harrison Klasztorny (17), Madelyn Gillett (15), Jaide Britton (16) and Angelina Dimasi (16) will all don WA jerseys as they take to the courts for the state's under 18s country side in Townsville for the seven-day tournament.
The young guns will battle it out against rival states for eight games in a bid to claim a finals spot, with their selection to the teams coming off a challenging trial process.
All four are rising stars with the Magic, but for each it will be their first time representing the state's basketball side.

Dimasi, who spent time developing her game locally in Waroona, said the reward has been made sweeter after overcoming several setbacks.
"It's really special," she said.
"You try out for these things all the time and a lot of the time you don't make it, so to be playing for WA and to be named in the team now is definitely special."
Klasztorny's selection sees him following the footsteps of his older siblings Fletcher, Emma and Bree, who have all played at the State Basketball League level for Mandurah.
The 17-year-old said it was an honour to be representing the state.
"It's exciting because you put so much work in training and all you want is to be picked for the team, so to have your name on the list is a bit of an honour," he said.
"[My brother and sisters] have given me plenty of advice along and just having them there to support is a really big help.
"It should be a really interesting new challenge."
All four loom as promising future prospects for Mandurah's State Basketball League sides, having followed the Mandurah Basketball Association's junior programs to develop their game.
"The coaches and everyone who helps here have been great for us," Britton said.
"They give you everything you need to succeed and it really helps you work on your game and get better."
The quartet will hit the ground running at the national championships with their opening day scheduled for Saturday, April 13.
