Stephen Henderson (born 2 January 1966) is an Irish football coach and former player who played as a goalkeeper.
Henderson comes from a goalkeeping family. His father, Paddy Henderson, was a League of Ireland goalkeeper, as was his brother Dave Henderson, while his younger brother Wayne Henderson was a Republic of Ireland international goalkeeper, and his son Stephen Henderson (footballer born 1988) currently minds the nets for Nottingham Forest
Following a long playing career that started at Shelbourne in 1984 and included Dundalk, Limerick, Lisburn Distillery, St James's Gate, Cobh Ramblers, Ards and Finn Harps, Henderson spent four years as the goalkeeping coach at Cork City.
Between 1996 and 2000 Henderson played a total of 117 games for Ards which included 2 appearances in the 1997 UEFA Intertoto Cup, 91 in the Irish Football League.
However, when the manager’s job at neighbouring Cobh Ramblers became available in 2004 he became the first member of his family to become a senior manager. He made his managerial bow at Finn Park on 4 September. He guided the club to third place in the First Division table in 2005, their highest league placing since 1999, and fourth place the following season before delivering the club their first ever piece of silverware when he guided Cobh Ramblers to the First Division title in 2007. Cobh were relegated in 2008 from the Premier Division and Henderson took up the manager's post at Waterford United in December 2008.
