Richard Hill (born 4 May 1961 in Birmingham) is a former English international rugby union footballer, who played at scrum-half for Bath and later coached Gloucester. There is another rugby footballer of the same name who, coincidentally, attended the same school (Bishop Wordsworth's Grammar School in Salisbury), and gained many caps for England playing in the back row.

Hill was recently appointed coach at Bristol Rugby, leading them back to the Premiership after two seasons and then to third place and the playoffs in the 2006-7 season.

He also spent a season as head coach of England Students and the backs coach as Ebbw Vale RFC under Leigh Jones.
