Alfred Sellman (1881 – after 1904) was an English professional footballer who played in the Football League for Small Heath.[1]

Born in Exeter, Devon, Sellman played amateur football before joining Small Heath in 1904.[2] His debut at centre half, on the last day of the 1904–05 First Division season,[3] received favourable reports in the press, but later the same year he returned to non-league football with Leyton. He had a trial with Kent County Cricket Club as a wicketkeeper.[2]
