William Dunbar Attrill (March 1868 – 1939) was a British sportsman. He was the first captain of Standard Athletic Club's football team, leading the Parisian club in 1894 to the first French football title.[1] He was also a member of the silver medal-winning French cricket team at the 1900 Summer Olympics, the only time cricket has featured in the Olympics. In the only game against Great Britain, he was dismissed for a duck in both French innings, took two wickets in Great Britain's first innings, and two catches in their second.[2]
He also competed in bicycle and automobile races.[1]
