Adrian Elrick (born September 29, 1949 in Scotland) was a football (soccer) player who represented New Zealand gaining 91 caps from 1975 to 1984,[1][2] scoring 1 goal for his country[3].

Moving from Scotland at a young age to New Zealand, Adrian became part of the Auckland football scene. He spent most of his career playing for North Shore United.

He represented the All Whites for all three matches at the 1982 FIFA World Cup in Spain, where they lost to Scotland, USSR and Brazil.[2] Elrick was fortunate enough to grab Zico's coveted No.10 shirt at the end of the New Zealand vs. Brazil game.
