Aaron Hardy (born May 26, 1986 in South Elmsall, West Yorkshire) is an English professional football defender currently without a club.

Hardy started his career with Huddersfield Town and made his debut for them on 17 October, 2006, in their 2–1 home defeat against Doncaster Rovers in Round 1 of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. He got many plaudits for his play at right-back in an otherwise poor team performance.

Then, on October 21, he played his first league match in Town's 2-1 win at Port Vale.

In the televised encounter on 5 January, 2007 at Yeovil Town, substitute Hardy scored an own goal in Yeovil's 3-1 win when he turned Lee Morris's cross passed Matt Glennon.

On Wednesday 9 May, he was offered a 6-month contract by new Town boss Andy Ritchie, which he accepted on May 31. On September 28, after a series of good performances at right-back as cover for the injured Frank Sinclair, his contract was extended to the end of the season.

Released by Town 6th May 2008. In July 2008 he signed for Conference North club Harrogate Town.
