David Antony Terence Leadley, known as Tony Leadley (born 1928), is a British rower.

Leadley was born in 1928 in Bedford, England. He was educated at Bedford Modern School,[1] and the University of Cambridge.[2] In 1953 Leadley was part of the winning Cambridge crew for the 1953 University Boat Race in the No. 5 position.[3] The crew won by eight lengths in a time of 19 minutes and 54 seconds.[3] After the 1953 Boat Race Leadley was elected President of Cambridge University Boat Club but, after failing a university examination, he had to resign and could no longer race for the University.[4] He was later a member of the Leander Club.

At the 1957 European Rowing Championships held at Duisburg in Germany, Leadley partnered with Christopher Davidge and won the coxless pair event by 0.4 seconds.[5]

There is a photographic portrait of him at the National Portrait Gallery.[2]
