George Scala Chuter (born 9 July 1976 in Greenwich, London) is an English rugby union ex player who played at Hooker for Leicester Tigers.
Chuter was born in Greenwich. He first started playing as a 12-year-old, when he went to Trinity School of John Whitgift in the London Borough of Croydon. He quickly established himself at hooker.

Chuter took a year off and decided to travel in the U.S. and Australia; he was in Sydney for the 2000 Olympic Games. On returning he signed for Leicester Tigers in December 2000. After the departure of Richard Cockerill in the summer of 2002, he competed with Dorian West as first choice hooker.
In the 2006–07 season, Chuter played in the final of the Guinness Premiership and Heineken Cup.
Chuter started in the final of the 2008–09 Guinness Premiership and 2008–09 Heineken Cup. Chuter started in the final of the 2009–10 Guinness Premiership.
In 1994–95 Chuter won his first cap for England Colts against Scotland and also went on that year’s summer tour to Canada. In 1998 he made a try-scoring debut for England A against France A at Tours, and in the same year went on the senior England 'tour to hell' against Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, featuring in the uncapped match at Invercargill against New Zealand Academy.
