Niall "Slippers" Madden (born 11 November 1985) is an Irish jockey who rode the racehorse Numbersixvalverde to win the 2006 Grand National steeplechase at Aintree Racecourse.

Madden's nickname is "Slippers", as a comparison with his father Niall Madden, also a jockey, whose nickname was "Boots". He rides for Noel Meade and won the 2006 Christmas Hurdle for Meade on Jazz Messenger.
