This weekend those three stars will join a host of others from Orange, Bathurst, Cowra and Wallerawang in representing Group 10 in under 16s league tag.
They will be in action as one of 28 teams involved in the Group 10 Junior Rugby League cluster carnival.
Hanrahan has been responsible for plenty of line breaks for the Saints this season and also brings a good kicking game to the Group 10 side, while Carter's speed and nous around the ruck will be big assets too.
As for Wentworth, well if she gets into space it's a safe bet she'll score too.
It's why Group 10 under 16s coach Martin Power is excited to see them in action.
"There is a bit of talent there and they've come together well over the training period," he said.
"I think Abby Carter should go well, Samantha Hanrahan, there's a girl called Eli Wentworth from CYMS and she's got speed to burn.
"They all just come together as that's their team, they put all that club rivalry aside.
"They should go alright I think, hopefully."
The cluster carnival offers the first chance for not just Group 10 players - there will be under 12, under 14 and under 16 league tag sides in action as well as under 12 and under 13 tackle teams - to play representative football in some time, but players from across the state.

Power says his squad can't wait.
"They haven't had any rep because of COVID and the way they've changed things most of the rep stuff is [Western] Rams oriented now, but they're excited to play for Group 10," he said.
"They look really keen for it, we've Dubbo, Group 14 and some nominated President's Cup [Rams] sides as well."
Though earning a spot in the Western Rams under 16s is a motivator for Power's side to impress over the two days, results are not the focus.
The coach simply hopes to see his players benefit from exposure to higher level competition and have fun along the way.
"We're just going out there to have fun and see what happens, just playing a bit of rep footy, they're keen on that.
"They do have a bit of an advantage because they've been training, but it's a development carnival. I think it will be a good weekend."
All games will be played at Saint Stanislaus' College, with Group 10 taking on Dubbo (10am) and Group 14 (noon) on Saturday then Rams Green (9am) and Rams White (noon) on Sunday.
