Tan Sio Beng is an ex-Singapore international footballer who plays as a defender for NFL Division 2 side Admiralty FC.

Following the departure of former player coach Mohd Noor Ali to Geylang United in June 2012, Sio Beng was also appointed as the assistant coach of the Wolves.

Sio Beng is known to be a tenacious player with a strong mentality to win. His dogged performances during training for Balestier Khalsa led to his debut in 1999 after he impressed Tigers coach PN Sivaji.

Sio Beng has turned out for S.League sides Balestier Khalsa,Sengkang Marine and Tanjong Pagar United as well as two stints with Singapore Cricket Club in the NFL Division 1 before making the switch to Admiralty FC in 2012. He spent five seasons at Balestier Khalsa and four seasons at Sengkang Punggol.

An entertaining but fiery player, Sio Beng was memorably sent off while playing for Balestier Khalsa in 2005 for violent conduct after Home United skipper Aide Iskandar's challenge on Balestier's keeper, Rizal Rahman, sparked a free for all. Balestier subsequently lodged an appeal against the red card but the appeal was rejected.
