What Could Random Heart Beat With Tiredness Suggest?

I am female collegiate basketball player, and sometimes (only about 3-4 times a year) when I play, my heart starts to beat really fast, probably about 2 or 3 times the regular speed, and it lasts for a few minutes, then I get extremely tired. What should I do?
