Arthur William Seccull, born King William's Town on 14 September 1868 and died at Johannesburg on 20 July 1945, was a cricketer who played once for South Africa.

An all-rounder, Seccull was a member of the first South African team to tour England in 1894, though no Tests were played. He scored 355 runs with a top score of 63 against Glamorgan, but took only four wickets.

Back in South Africa in 1895-96, he played in the third Test at Cape Town against the England side under Lord Hawke, scoring 6 and 17 not out and taking two wickets for 37 runs.

Seccull's provincial cricket in South Africa was mainly for Transvaal, though he also appeared for Kimberley and Western Province.
