Cairns trio Jack Bowes, Joel Karwan and Shawn Watson will fly the flag at the under-16 AFL national championships on the Gold Coast.
They all played in the under-16 State Academy Championships at Moreton Bay Sporting Complex earlier this week and will head south again in July for the nationals.
Coach John Rankin paid tribute to the Gold Coast Suns Academy staff for preparing the players well ahead of the tournament.
Meanwhile the under-15 Peninsula side began their Queensland Schoolboys campaign in Brisbane yesterday, the side hoping to consolidate after finishing fifth last season.
