Louis Schreuder (born 25 April 1990) is a South African rugby union footballer who plays as a scrum-half for the Kings in Super Rugby.

Born and raised in the Western Cape, Schreuder came through the ranks at Western Province and made his senior debut against Border during the 2010 Vodacom Cup. Super Rugby caps arrived the following year as he took advantage of injuries to regular scrum-halves Dewaldt Duvenage and Ricky Januarie to earn valuable game time towards the end of the season. Januarie's departure ahead of the 2012 season saw Schreuder become the regular back-up to Duvenage and he made 14 substitute appearances during the campaign. More game time arrived in the 2012 Currie Cup and he earned his first piece of senior rugby silverware as a 68th-minute substitute for Nic Groom as Western Province upset the Sharks 25–18 in Durban to land their 33rd Currie Cup title.

2013 saw Schreuder take his game to a new level and with Dewaldt Duvenage announcing he would join French Top 14 side Perpignan at the conclusion of the 2013 Super Rugby season he saw much more action. He started 6 games and made 4 substitute appearances as himself, Duvenage and Groom were all rotated throughout the campaign. However, come the 2013 Currie Cup he appeared to have established himself ahead of Nic Groom as Province's first-choice scrum-half. He played in all 12 of his side's matches during the season, including 9 starts as the Western Cape outfit reached their 2nd consecutive Currie Cup Final. Schreuder was named in the starting line-up and was substituted in the 52nd minute as the Shark's gained revenge on Western Province with a surprise 33–19 victory at Newlands.
