Laurie Millsom (1901-1959) was an English professional football goalkeeper.

Laurie Millsom was born in Rotherham and began his professional career with Rotherham County, playing 5 league games in 1924. He subsequently moved to Rotherham Amateurs, joining Torquay United in 1927 prior to their first season in the Football League.

After regular keeper Archie Bayes was injured in training, Millsom played in goal in Torquay's first game in the football league, a 1-1 draw at home to local rivals Exeter City on the 27th of August 1927. He lost his place to Bayes after the first three games and spent his remaining career at Plainmoor as an understudy to Bayes, then Harold Gough and finally Joe Wright.
