Henry Hutchison (born in 12 February 1997) is a professional rugby union player. He represents Australia in Sevens Rugby. Born in Sydney, NSW and playing for Randwick at club level, he debuted for Australia in December 2015.

Hutchison attended Saint Ignatius' College, Riverview and joined the Australian Sevens program in August 2015 after impressing for his local club side Randwick in Sydney's Shute Shield competition. Hutchison was due to represent Australia at the Commonwealth Youth Games in Samoa in September 2015 but such was the impression he made that he was promoted to the senior squad for the pre-season tour to New Zealand. He was part of the 12-man squad that helped Australia qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio at the Oceania Sevens in November 2015. Representative honours include Australian Men's Sevens, Australian Under 20s and the Australian Schoolboys. [1]

Hutchison competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics.[2]
