Price (Wests) and Dickson (Toronto) were both unveiled in the inaugural over-40 side on Thursday following Mace (Charlestown) getting the expected nod for the over-50 team on Tuesday.
The over-40 program kicks off with a tour of New Zealand, featuring three internationals, in February before a World Cup in Pakistan later in 2023.
Price, Newcastle's first grade player of the year in 2020-21 and an honorary Australian Country XI member, still lines up for the Rosellas while Dickson is the president at Toronto.
Mace, a former Newcastle and Bush Blues representative, will take part in the over-50 World Cup in South Africa in April having top scored with 394 runs during a recent tri-series.
