Bill Henderson (born 23 November 1929) is an Australian former football (soccer) player.[1]

Henderson's debut for Australia in 1954 was historic as he became the first second-generation Socceroo—his father Andy Henderson had represented the national team in 1924.[2] Henderson was a member of the Australian team at the 1956 Summer Olympics.[2][3]
