International career

In the same year, she competed at the 2010 African Women's Championship, where South Africa finished third.

Sister scored a goal in a warmup match against Cameroon prior to the 2012 African Women's Championship; she had missed two previous games against Zimbabwe to rest an injury. At the 2012 African Women's Championship, Sister failed a drug test. She was suspended until 16 December 2013; originally, she was given a two-year ban, but that was reduced to one year by the Confederation of African Football (CAF). The doctor who administered the drug admitted responsibility, and was subsequently banned for four years.

Sister returned to the national squad in 2014. She was not selected in the South African squad for the 2015 African Games in the Republic of the Congo, as Sister was finalising a move to Győri ETO.
