Tom Williams (born 12 October 1983) is an English former rugby union player who played for Harlequins in the Aviva Premiership. He normally played at either full-back or on the wing.

Williams was born in Brighton and attended Windlesham House School.[2][3] He represented Wales at U16 and U19 level, then switched to England for the 2002 IRB U19 World Cup.[4]

Williams represented England in the 2003-04 World Sevens Series,[5] winning the Hong Kong leg.[6] He also competed in the 2006-07 IRB Sevens World Series.[7]

He started and scored a try for Harlequins in their 2011–12 Premiership final victory over Leicester Tigers.[8] He is a member of the “200 Club” having represented Harlequins for over 200 1st games.

He retired in 2015.[2]

Bloodgate

{{main article|Bloodgate}}

During the 2008–09 Heineken Cup quarter final against Leinster, Williams was told to fake a blood injury by Dean Richards to allow a tactical substitition to reintroduce Nick Evans leading to the bloodgate scandal. This resulted in a 12-month ban for Williams, (reduced to four months on appeal), a three-year ban for former director of rugby Dean Richards as well as a two-year ban for physiotherapist Steph Brennan from the ERC with a £260,000 fine for the club.[9] Tom remains the only one to apologise for this scandal.
