The 17-year-old will get the chance to taste contest against Academy teams from the Brisbane Lions and Gold Coast Suns when the roster heads into camp at Coffs Harbour from May 9-12.
She had previously said she was enjoying the AFL Women's Acadmy.
However, the headline feature will be two matches against Tasmania set for late in the month and early in June.
Canberra-based coach Steve Mahar told AFL media the Coffs Harbour games would be a chance for the team to gel ahead of the under 18s championships.
"We will use Coffs as an opportunity for all players to connect and get to know the game style that we want to play at Rams level," Mahar said.
The opening round of the championships will see the squad take on Tassie in Sydney.
The two teams will then join forces as the Eastern Allies to compete in the second round of the championships in July on the Gold Coast.
