"It's an honor to be selected to represent Tassie in the carnival in Perth, but it's an expensive trip," Isaac said.
"I'm very grateful to Longford Rotary for giving me a helping hand."
Isaac has been training more than five times a week to prepare.
Club president, Kathy Farr, said one of rotary’s main roles was to support promising young local athletes.
"When young people demonstrate their commitment to achieve, our club will always do its best to help them," she said.
