Her brother Karabo, who would become a professional footballer, taught her the basics and skills. From a young age, she played with boys in the community, and became the only female football player in school. In her early career, she was a defender.

She won also the University Sports South Africa (USSA) Football National Club Championship and the ABSA Women’s Championship. In 2018, although she decided to retire from football to seek permanent employment, her team coach Tebogo Mokae convinced her to finish the season. In February 2019, she got a chance to go to Spain, where she trained for a month with two clubs, which helped renew her confidence in a football career. The assistant coach of TUT Ladies, Nadia Kroll, offered her a contract to play in Belarus. Madiba had to decide within three days, as the Belarusian club was in preparation for a major European tournament. Her childhood dream of playing overseas came through when she took that chance.

She scored eleven goals in 14 matches of the 2019-20 Turkish Women's First Football League season, before it was discontinued due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey. Her team was entitled to represent Turkey at the 2020–21 UEFA Women's Champions League, as the top-ranking team, when the league was stopped. In the 2020-21 Turkcell Women's League, she transferred to Fatih Vatan Spor in Istanbul.
