Hockey is one of the sporting codes that are still making inroads. At a tender age, Lisa Olorato Eberhardt is one of the players already making a mark.

Born 18 years ago in Mmadinare, Eberhardt is an all-rounder. She has been involved in different sport disciplines during her school days. “I am a sports person and I tried to play all sport available in my school, John Mackenzie High, in Francistown. When I was doing Standard Six, hockey was introduced and I decided to play it. After a short stint, I developed a love for the sport and it grew deeper in me,” she told Mmegi Sport.

That was the best choice made by Eberhardt. Today she is a dominant centre forward with all of the will, power, and intangibles to become a successful hockey star. She has tried her luck in swimming, netball, girls’ football and athletics. During her stay at John Mackenzie, Maggie Lambat coached her. Eberhardt completed her A-Levels this year. John Mackenzie headmaster said in her testimony that Eberhardt had contributed in all spheres of school life.
