Playing career

[edit]

Makhabane was included into the national team in 2005. After helping South Africa qualify for the 2012 Summer Olympics, Makhabane was unable to participate in the tournament due to a groin injury sustained in September 2011.[3][4] In September 2014, she was named to the senior team roster in preparation for the 2014 African Women's Championship in Namibia.[5][6][7][8]

She made her 100th appearance for South Africa in August 2019.[9]
