Harry Hall (1900 – ) was an English footballer who played as an outside right in the Football League for Lincoln City and Darlington.[1]

Hall was born in 1900;[1] he was reported as being from Lancashire.[2] In the 1920–21 season, Hall played for Pinxton in the Derbyshire Senior League.[3] Towards the end of the season, he joined Midland League club Lincoln City on trial. Having produced a good performance for the club's reserves, he made his senior debut on 30 April 1921 against Rotherham County.[2] His corner led to Lincoln's opening goal in a 2–1 win that confirmed the club as champions,[4] he was signed up for the season to come,[3] and played in the remaining two matches of the Midland League season.[5]

Lincoln were elected to the Third Division North, newly formed for 1921–22, and Hall made 16 appearances that season.[5] He then signed for Third Division runners-up Darlington.[6] He played in the first half of the campaign, but by December had lost his place to Thompson Kirkham,[7] and finished the season with one goal from 13 league appearances.[1]
