Leonard Geard (born 12 February 1934) is an English retired professional football wing half who appeared in the Football League for Brentford.

A wing half, Geard began his career in the youth ranks at Fulham, but departed in March 1953 without making a first team appearance.

Geard transferred to Fulham's West London rivals Brentford in March 1953. Due to having to undertake his National Service, Geard wasn't able to make his professional debut until 27 April 1955, in a 1–1 Division Three South draw with Crystal Palace. He made a further three appearances during the 1955–56 season, before being released at the end of the campaign.

In 1956, Geard dropped into non-league football to sign for Southern League side Kettering Town.
