When Aurelia 'Aura' Opondo was left out of the national hockey women's team that featured in this year's Commonwealth Games, she did not give up on her goal to be the best hockey player.

Despite being instrumental for Kenya when the national team won bronze at the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations, the Lakers Hockey Club striker did not make the final squad.
