Latest — Keeper of the Tournament, three years running
Roku Super League 2026 · Indoor · u18 boys · October 2026
Reghardt was named Keeper of the Tournament in the u18 boys section of the 2026 Roku Super League indoor tournament.
It is the third year in a row he has won the award: at u16 in 2024, at u18 in 2025, and at u18 again this year.
Five very competitive teams made for a fierce, closely fought tournament, and the race between the goalkeepers was just as close.
He played it only 11 days after an operation, still recovering.

Profile
Two nicknames, one goalkeeper — he answers to both. A dedicated hockey goalkeeper known for quick reflexes and fast movement. He is at his best when the stakes are highest — the bigger the game, the calmer he gets, and that calm carries to the whole team. In the goal he is a vocal communicator throughout, organising and managing the players in front of him. More than making saves, he sees himself as a mentor and leader — committed to helping team mates and fellow goalkeepers grow.
