Boalefa follows in the footsteps of Thabo Mnyamane and Luvolwethu Mpeta - also former players of the Soccer Institute - to play for the senior national team.

While at the Soccer Institute, he represented South Africa in both the national under-20 and under-23 squad, where he obtained 14 and 5 caps respectively. Boalefa was voted the best goalkeeper during the 2010 University Sport South Africa (USSA) soccer tournament, which the Soccer Institute won back to back in 2009 and 2010.

This goal stopper is originally from Zeerust in the North West Province. He was the second player from the institute after Andile Khumalo to join a premier soccer league. He is presently with Amazulu FC where he is on one-year loan from Supersport united FC.

Boalefa obtained a Sport Science Diploma from the NWU.
