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.

John Mackenzie headmaster said in her testimony that Eberhardt had contributed in all spheres of school life.
