Coach Kerrie Mars said the athletes performed well as a team in the face of some tough opponents, and pulled through to compete as a unified team.
The representative teams play a number of tournaments throughout the year, including in the Shoalhaven, Canberra, Queanbeyan and Sydney.
It was the first time the Under 14 athletes had travelled to Wagga, and Ms Mars said the carnival was a good tournament for teams to compete in because it attracted a lot of teams, was very competitive and always enjoyable.
"It is great experience to come across teams we don't normally play against," she said.
Ms Mars said the U13 and U14 teams had missed out on opportunities because of COVID, and were looking forward to playing at the state age netball championships for the first time in July this year.
Ms Mars has been coaching the team for the past 18 months, but said many of the girls had been playing together for a long time.
