Barbra Banda is a Zambian professional footballer who has been representing the Zambia national team as a striker since her debut in 2016. Since then, Banda has scored 57 goals in 63 international appearances, making her the country's all-time top scorer.

Banda captained the Zambian squad at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, the first time Zambia competed at the international tournament.[1][2] During the team's first group stage match, Banda scored a hat trick against the Netherlands. The match ended 3–10, the worst ever loss for the Zambia women's national football team and the highest-scoring women's football match in Olympics history.[3] In their second group match, Banda scored another hat trick against China with the match ending in a 4–4 draw. She became the first woman footballer in Olympic history to score back-to-back hat tricks and the first to score two hat tricks in one tournament.[4] She is Africa's all-time top scorer in Olympic history.[5][6]
