The Allansford midcourter is among 14 players selected to represent the Warrnambool and District league's 17 and under team, coached by Rachel Mungean, at Sunday's championships.

The Warrnambool College student said she initially wasn't going to try out for the team.

"But then Rachel being my coach at Allansford, she was like, you should come," Singleton, 17, said. "I went and was a little bit surprised (to be selected)."

The former basketballer has only been playing netball for three seasons but has quickly risen up the ranks at Allansford to feature at both 17 and under and A grade level this season.

She said Mungean had been a strong mentor for those at the club.

"We definitely needed that coach to tell us where to go, how we need to play a certain position," Singleton said. "She's doing really well."

Singleton will be joined by teammate Hannah Byron in the representative side, and is looking forward to playing with others from across the league.

"I do know quite a few in the team, with school and other netball games," she said. "But having Hannah in the team is great, she's a great defender and someone definitely to watch."

Singleton said she was excited to learn and adapt to playing with new teammates.

"Everyone plays a bit differently, so I like to learn, being centre and feeding into shooters, do they like it down, or up?," Singleton said. "How do they like to hold their hands, or do they click at me or clap? I just love to learn how people work and how we come together as a team is going to be so cool."
