Travis Dodd (born January 6, 1980 in Adelaide, South Australia, Australia) is an Indigenous Australian football (soccer) player. He currently plays as a right midfielder for Adelaide United in the newly-formed Hyundai A-League.
He played junior soccer at Elizabeth before joining the South Australian Sports Institute in 1996. He was Adelaide City’s fourth youngest National Soccer League (NSL) player of all time (16 years 281 days), and the fifth player in NSL history to score a hat-trick after coming on as a substitute (2003, 4-1 v Football Kingz).
At the conclusion of the 2003/04 NSL season Travis moved abroad, playing firstly with Malaysian club Johor, then Greek club Panionios NFC. During his stint with Panionios, Travis scored in their UEFA Cup first round victory over high-profile Udinese Calcio.
Dodd's debut international match for Australia was an Asian Cup qualifier against Kuwait at Aussie Stadium, on August 16, 2006. He scored the opening goal for the home side in a 2-0 win. Dodd's goal marked the first ever international goal scored by an Indigenous Australian player.[1]
