Travis Gaspar (born 28 March 1981) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League.
He was recruited as the number 14 draft pick in the 1999 AFL Draft from South Fremantle. Gaspar made his debut for the West Coast Eagles in Round 8, 2001 against Hawthorn. During the 2005 preliminary final against Adelaide, Gaspar elbowed McGregor just before the bounce-down. This resulted in a 50-metre penalty and Adelaide kicking the first goal. He was charged with striking, but found not guilty due to it being deemed an act of self-defence. Gaspar was cleared to play for the Eagles in the 2005 Grand Final against the Swans. After playing in the Grand Final, Gaspar never played AFL again after his contract was not renewed at the end of the 2006 season.
In 2011 Travis competed in the SunSmart IRONMAN Busselton in Western Australia, Australia. He finished the competition in 9 hours 48 seconds, ranked 10th in his division and 62nd overall.
Gaspar is now a director of the Inspired Living Foundation. Inspired Living Foundation provides life skills and wellbeing programs to schools and community groups throughout Western Australia, including Onslow, Mullewa, Yalgoo and Leonora.
Gaspar is the youngest brother of Damien and Darren, two players who also reached AFL level.
