Stephen Edward Richard Hetzke (born June 3, 1955 in Marlborough, Wiltshire) is an English former professional footballer. He played as a defender.
His career is best remembered for his long spell with Reading, where he twice won promotion from Division Four and received a testimonial match after leaving for Blackpool in July 1982. In March 1986 he moved on to Sunderland, although after relegation to Division Three in 1986-87 he moved on to Chester City. He made his Chester debut in a disastrous 5-0 home defeat to Northampton Town at the start of 1987-88 and added just 13 more league appearances before joining Colchester United in a £10,000 transfer in February 1988.
Hetzke finished his league career at the Layer Road club at the end of the 1988-89 season.
