Nicole Seekamp always knew she wanted to be a basketball player. But a goat farmer? Well, that wasn’t part of her plan. When she was 14, she left her hometown of Renmark in South Australia and moved across the country to Canberra and the Australian Institute of Sport. Over the next 20 years, she played for not only our national team, the Opals, at the Commonwealth Games, but all over the world. By 2019 she was on track for her first Olympics.  But as the 2020 season drew to a close, Nicole knew she wouldn’t be returning to basketball, because she’d fallen in love with a Goat Farmer named Ross from Wilcannia. Ending her basketball career also meant walking away from a huge part of her life. But knew heart wasn’t in it anymore, and she also knew she wanted a new life with Ross. So what was it like swapping basketball courts and cheering crowds, for paddocks of red dirt and goats? And how have the first three years of Motherhood been with two under two? This is Nicole's story.
