“Badminton is not just a sport for me, it's a way of life.”
Growing up in the small village of Mmathubudukwane, Kagiso found her love for badminton when she was just six years old. Despite the lack of resources and proper training facilities, Kagiso pursued her passion and became the undefeated champion of her local tournament every year. Her dedication and hard work earned her a spot in the Batswana national team, where she continues to dominate the court with her fast footwork and precise shots. Off the court, Kagiso is a role model for young girls in her village, often volunteering at the local school and encouraging them to pursue their dreams.
Definitely winning the African Badminton Championships last year. It was a tough competition but I never gave up and I'm grateful for the support of my team and coaches.
It's all about time management and prioritizing my commitments. But giving back to my community is just as important to me as playing badminton. It's where I came from and it's my duty to uplift and inspire the next generation.
