Thomas Coyle (born 10 May 1988) is an English rugby league player with Hunslet Hawks. He is a scrum half.

Coyle was educated at St. John Fisher Catholic High School, Wigan. He signed for the Wigan Warriors from the local amateur team Wigan St Patricks. He moved into the Wigan Academy Under 18s in 2005.

Coyle was selected for Lancashire U17s and England U15s and U16s while part of the Wigan scholarship and Academy systems. He was also included in the England U17s squad to take on the touring Australian Institute of Sport in 2005. He signed for Halifax RLFC on loan in May, but having failed to impress was released early.
