Zibraaz Sahib has been greatly inspired by his family.

The national soccer representative grew up watching his brothers play the sport.

He described it as the turning point of his life, where his passion for the sport grew gradually with age.

The 32-year-old has been playing soccer for the Lautoka team since 2008.

He represented the country in the Under 23 category in 2012 and played for the national team on international platforms from 2017 until 2019.

Currently employed at Punjas Limited, Mr Sahib still actively plays for the Lautoka soccer team.

He is the captain of the Press Football Club – which is the oldest running football club in Lautoka.
