Tommy Smith (born 31 March 1990 in Macclesfield, Cheshire) is a professional footballer for Ipswich Town. The latest in a distinguished line of young academy players from Ipswich, he plays in the centre of defence. Smith was one of the players to appear in the FA Youth Cup victory in 2005, where they beat Southampton 3–2 over two legs. He spent the second half of the 2007–08 season on loan at Stevenage Borough in the Conference National. Smith made his Ipswich Town debut on August 9 2008 against Preston North End.

Born in England, Tommy resided in New Zealand during his youth and as a result holds dual nationality. This gives him the opportunity to declare himself eligible for the All Whites before he is 21. However, he has represented England at U17 and U18 level and played in the U17 World Cup in Korea in September, 2007.
