Alfred George Fry (1864 – 15 May 1930) was an English footballer. Born in Southampton, Fry was one of the first players for St. Mary's Y.M.A. (later renamed St. Mary's), between 1885 and 1888, playing as a half-back.

Life and career[edit]

Originally from Southampton, Alfred Fry was one of the first players to join St. Mary's Y.M.A., playing in the team's first match in November 1885.[1] Primarily a half-back, Fry made two competitive appearances in the club's third season, in the 1–0 win over Totton and the 10–0 win over Petersfield, both in the Hampshire Junior Cup.[1] Following his retirement from football, Fry went on to become a "prominent builder" in the area; he died in 1930, aged 66.[1]
