Makoto Teguramori (手倉森 誠, Teguramori Makoto, born November 14, 1967) is a former Japanese football player and manager. He played for Sumitomo Metal / Kashima Antlers in the late 1980s. Makoto managed Japan U-23 national team at 2016 Summer Olympics.

In 2016 AFC U-23 Championship held in Qatar, he managed Japan U-23 to win the Asian U-23 tournament for the first time, thus qualifying to join Rio 2016 as the champions of Asia. In Rio 2016, he and his U-23 men obtained as many as four points at the group stage, nonetheless ending up at only the third place behind Nigeria U-23 and Colombia U-23 in Group B. This was not sufficient for them to qualify to the next stage.
