Barbara has been selected in the ACT/NSW Country under-15s side to play at the female National Championships in Canberra during late February/early March.
The side was finalised following last month's NSW Country Championships at Raymond Terrace where Barbara led an inexperienced Central North side well with the majority of the squad either 11 and 12, and was a steadying presence at the top of the order.
She was their top-scorer in two of their four games, scoring 17 of just 36 in their first game and 26 in their second.
