Georgia Williams, Phoebe Lavers and Tarsha Ciardi will represent in the Northern State Futsal League in the youth division.
The trio will play teams made of boys their age but that doesn't faze the talented teens.
"It's really great, it feels equal in a way," Lavers said.
"I haven't had the opportunity to play in something like this before so I'm excited.
"I've always wanted to play in a mixed comp and it's a chance to meet new people."
Both 15-year-olds, Lavers and Williams have played the sport for about five years and agreed they were looking forward to the challenge that lay ahead.
Williams went as far to say she would like to represent Australia at the Olympics.
"They don't have futsal at the Olympics yet but I hope that changes soon," she said.
"I'd like to play at the Olympics. That would be my goal anyway."
The girls' former coach Alison Fazzolari said the selection in the state league team could be just a stepping stone for them.
"It will be a really good challenge for them all," she said.
"Hopefully it will improve them even further and ready them for national selections.
The premier league competition kicks off in Port Macquarie on April 27 with games played between Mid North Coast Futsal, North Coast Futsal and Northern NSW Futsal.
The girls will play monthly with their representative team while they will continue to play women's and mixed divisions for their local club sides.
