Ben Kantarovski (born 20 January 1992 in Newcastle, Australia) is an Australian football (soccer) player of Macedonian[citation needed] descent currently playing for the Newcastle Jets.

Kantarovski was signed to a four year contract by the Newcastle Jets in January 2008 when he was only 15 years of age. This broke the A-League record of the youngest player ever to be signed to a contract in the league.[1]
