James Ford (born 29 September 1982) is an English professional rugby league coach who is the head coach of the York City Knights in Betfred Championship, and a former player.

He previously played in the Super League for Castleford Tigers and the Widnes Vikings, and is, by preference, a fullback but can also play at centre, and on the wing. Ford signed initially for the Featherstone Rovers as a youth in 1998, before moving on to the Sheffield Eagles, and then Castleford in 2008. Ford made his first-grade début whilst playing for the Castleford Tigers in Super League in a 28-6 win away to the Warrington Wolves in 2009's Super League XIV, and he went on to make a total of eight appearances, scoring once. In late 2009, he left the club for Widnes. He is a lecturer at Wakefield college.[3]
