Fred "Freddie" Ah Kuoi (born 7 June 1956 in Apia, Western Samoa) is a former New Zealand rugby league player who represented his country.

Ah Kuoi was born in apia, Western Samoa in 1956 and immigrated to New Zealand in 1962 with his parents, Fred Snr and Siutu Ah Kuoi, and his two younger brothers, Peter and Afi. Brothers Andrew and Paul and sister Elizabeth were born in Auckland, New Zealand

His brother Paul later played for Marist Richmond, Glenora and represented Samoa.

Ah Kuoi began his career in 1973 playing for Richmond in the Auckland Rugby League competition. He was part of the Richmond side that won the championship in 1979.

Ah Kuoi moved to Sydney in 1981 to play professionally for the North Sydney Bears, then to England to join his former teammates, James Leuluai, Gary Kemble and Dane O'Hara, at Hull F.C. from 1983-1987.

Ah Kuoi played Stand-off/Five-eighth in Hull's 24-28 defeat by Wigan in the 1985 Challenge Cup Final during the 1984–85 season at Wembley Stadium, London on Saturday 4 May 1985, in front of a crowd of 99,801, in what is regarded as the most marvellous cup final in living memory, which Hull narrowly lost after fighting back from 12-28 down at half-time.
