Western Sydney Wanderers breakout star Courtney Nevin has admitted the chance to train alongside her Matildas heroes this week has been a little intimidating.
It's been a big week for the 17-year-old, who heard of her Matildas call-up for the pre-Chile friendlies training camp at school, soon after re-signing for the Wanderers.
"I was so excited," Nevin told www.matildas.com.au. "The nerves kind of kicked in and I was a bit scared.
"To be around such experienced players is good, because I can learn from them - both football and as people.
"It's good environment to be around."
Despite this camp arriving in the middle of a crucial period in her studies, Nevin's rise on the field has been incredibly promising for an international career.
Moving all the way from the Mini Roos to the Young Matildas and now to the senior national team, Nevin's relishing the chance to prove herself capable of a debut.
"I'd be stoked. I'd be so happy," she said.
"It would be a dream come true. If I got that opportunity I would take it with both hands."
The Westfield Matildas will play Chile on Saturday, 9 November 2019 at Bankwest Stadium in Parramatta, before meeting the South Americans at Coopers Stadium in Adelaide again on Tuesday, 12 November 2019.
