Peter Sloane is a New Zealand rugby coach and former player. He played for Northland from 1972–1983, and made fifteen appearances for the All Blacks, including one test match, between 1973 and 1979. He has also been a coach, acting as assistant New Zealand coach to John Hart in 1998-1999, assistant Crusaders coach in 1997-1999, Highlanders head coach in 2000-2001, and Blues head coach between 2002 and 2005. During his time in Auckland he led the Blues to the 2003 Super 12 championship.

In April 2006, Sloane joined the coaching staff at English rugby club Northampton Saints. Initially employed as forwards coach, he was briefly appointed head coach in 2007, but left the club the same year when Jim Mallinder was announced as head coach.
