William "Billy" Little (26 January 1911 – 17 December 2004) was an English professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1930s, and 1940s, playing at representative level for England, and Cumberland, and at club level for Barrow, as a scrum half, i.e. number 7.
Little is originally from a little mining village named Great Clifton, and in his early days played for the village's club.
Little won caps for England while at Barrow in 1933 against Other Nationalities, and in 1934 against Australia, and France.
Little represented Cumberland.
Little played scrum-half/halfback, and scored a drop goal with his left-foot in Barrow's 4-7 defeat by Salford in the 1938 Challenge Cup Final during the 1937–38 season at Wembley, London on 7 May 1938, and was a reserve in Barrow's 0-10 defeat by Wigan in the 1950–51 Challenge Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, London on 5 May 1951.
