Fred Woolley (22 December 1880 – 18 January 1955) was an Australian rugby league footballer who played in the 1900s and 1910s. He played for Balmain and was a foundation player of the club.

Woolley played Rugby Union with Northern Districts, Glebe and Balmain before switching codes to join Balmain in 1908.

Woolley was a foundation player for Balmain and played in the club's first ever season which was also the first season of Rugby League in Australia.

In 1909, Woolley was selected to play for Australia, New South Wales and Metropolis.

Woolley went on to play with Balmain up until the end of 1910 and remarkably went his whole career without scoring a try.

Woolley was the uncle of Australian Rugby League Hall of Fame inductee Wally Prigg.^[2][3][4]
