Al Vergara (born December 20, 1979) is a Filipino professional basketball player.

Vergara started off his professional career with the Singapore Slingers in the inaugural Asean Basketball League and played there for two seasons before joining Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants in the Philippine Basketball Association on loan from the Slingers, for the 2009 PBA Fiesta Conference.

An undrafted player in the 2006 PBA Draft, he played collegiately for the St. Francis of Assisi College Golden Doves, with current PBA players brothers Yancy and Ranidel de Ocampo, Ervin Sotto, and Erick Canlas.

Known for his athleticism, efficiency, and excellent plays, Vergara is best remembered for his role in the so-called Harbour Centre dynasty in the amateur Philippine Basketball League from 2006 to date. That feat led to him being signed by the Singapore Slingers in 2008 and becoming its starting point guard to replace Jayson Castro.
