Frederick "Fred" Hall (24 November 1924 – April 2006) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Birmingham City F.C..[1] In later life he was President of the Huntingdonshire Football Association.

He was working as a coal miner when he signed for Birmingham City in March 1947.[2] A centre forward, Hall scored on his debut in the Second Division on 5 April 1947 in a 2–1 home win against Fulham, and kept his place for the next two games.[3] Not selected again until November 1949, when he also scored, he went on to play for Southern League club Bedford Town and Eynesbury Rovers of the Eastern Counties League.[4]
