Cricket Victoria has named the squads for its Vic Metro and Vic Country Under 19 Female Emerging Players program.
The 48 players selected were chosen based on their performances in representative opportunities throughout the summer and Premier Cricket.
Specialist sessions will begin next month before the wider program commences in August.
Players will train at the CitiPower Centre and the MCG, while sessions will also be held in regional areas to reduce the travel burden for players based in country areas.
The program will call upon the expertise of Cricket Victoria's coaches with current players also involved.
Players will then have the opportunity to represent Vic Metro and Vic Country at the National Championships to be held in Perth in December.
"This is a key part of the players development pathway where they'll receive guidance and insight from elite coaches and professional players," Cricket Victoria's Head of the Female Emerging Players Program Duncan Harrison said.
"They'll gain an increased understanding of their own game and how to prepare for professional cricket.
"The carrot of a National Championships at the end of this year is a great landmark for the players to aim for and we're excited by the level of talent we'll have representing Victoria at that tournament."
