Bobby Lloyd (1888–18 January 1930) was a Welsh international scrum-half who played club rugby for Pontypool and county rugby for Monmouthshire. He won seven caps for Wales and played in the 1913 and 1914 Five Nations Championships. Lloyd was a favourite at Pontypool and was one of the finest scrum-halves produced by the club.

In 1912, Lloyd faced the touring South Africans as part of the Monmouthshire County team. Lloyd played well and gave the Springbok halves, Freddie Luyt and Fred Dobbin a difficult match, though the tourists class shone through to win the game comfortably.

Lloyd was first capped for Wales in a winning game against Scotland on 1 February 1913. The game was played at Inverleith and both sides had a sparsity of international experience; though Wales were captained by the veteran Billy Trew. Lloyd played in the next six consecutive games in the Five Nations Championships, which saw Wales finish second to England in both tournaments.
