Thomas "Tommy" Tait (20 November 1908 – 1976) was an English footballer.

He played for Sunderland, Hetton, Middlesbrough, Southport, Manchester City, Bolton Wanderers, Luton Town, Bournemouth and Boscombe Athletic, Reading and Torquay United.

When Tommy joined Reading, £200 of his fee was provided by the supporters club. He scored a hat-trick on debut away at local rivals Aldershot, and was top scorer for the club on his first four seasons. He was also involved in a rare sending off when he punched a Millwall defender on Boxing Day 1934.
