Guys & Gals

Does anyone have any experience to pass on for tips on getting kids noticed? Living in a rural area kids are continually overlooked based on geographical location. As they reach later teenage years and go past national level for juniors which finishes at U16 (Qld) how can they be seen without moving?
I would have no problem moving but only after securing some type of arrangement. Moving first without having anything is a big commitment.
My questions relates to Girls but tips would be the same for both sexes.

Any ideas?
