While many young athletes dream of representing their country, Ingham’s Brax Roveda is doing it—again. The rising futsal star has already made his mark on the international stage, playing for Australia in the Under-12 team in Malaysia, and come November, he will take on the world once more—this time in Barcelona with the Under-13 squad.
Brax’s love for the game began at just six years old, kicking off on the soccer field before transitioning to futsal, a high-speed indoor variation that demands sharp reflexes, quick thinking, and precise footwork. The fast-paced nature of futsal has shaped him into a formidable player, giving him an edge on both the indoor court and outdoor pitch.
While Brax is a versatile soccer player who can slot into any position, it’s in futsal where he has truly found his calling—as a goalkeeper. From the goal line, he’s not just a last line of defense but also a vocal leader, shouting encouragement and offering tactical tips to his teammates. His ability to read the game and react in a split second has made him a key player in his squad.
Later this year, Brax will travel to Spain alongside his proud grandparents, taking another step in what is already an impressive sporting journey. With Barcelona on the horizon, he will once again test himself against the world’s best, proving that dedication, skill, and a love for the game can take a young player from Ingham to the global stage.
