The junior netballers qualified for the state titles after finishing with a top two spot at the North East Zone competition held at Wodonga's Kelly Park last month.
Yackandandah A-grade netball coach Kylie Murphy was named coach of the side, which consists of nine players all ready to compete in Frankston on Sunday.
The under-13's are the only team advancing to the final stage of the championships from the Wodonga Netball Association.
Murphy said the girls are looking forward to the opportunity to experience the standard of netball the Association Championships has to offer.
"They're all very excited," Murphy said.
"Most of the girls have never had the opportunity to play at this high level before."
