Terence McClatchey Lockington (26 March 1913 — 8 September 2001) was a New Zealand rugby union international.[1]

Born in Waihi, Lockington attended Waihi High School and later Auckland Grammar School, where he was a member of the 1929 1st XV. He played his post school rugby for Grammar and made his Auckland debut in 1934.[2]

Lockington, a loose forward, made an uncapped All Blacks appearance in 1936 against South Canterbury, a fixture taking place during the Bledisloe Cup. After scoring a first half try, he broke his hand, ruling him out of Test contention.[2][3]
