Jason Gregory (born 1 March 1970) is an Australian former rugby league player.

Gregory attended Hawker College in Canberra and was originally an Australian rules footballer, until a broken back forced him to give up the sport in 1987. He switched to rugby league and earned Australian Schoolboys representative honours. In 1989, Gregory was a five–eighth in the Canberra Raiders side which went undefeated in the Jersey Flegg competition. [1] He played first–grade for the Raiders in 1991, appearing mostly off the bench. [2]

With Ricky Stuart entrenched as Raiders halfback, Gregory moved to the Gold Coast Seagulls in 1992. His time at the Gold Coast was ended by a serious neck injury suffered during his debut pre–season match. [3] [4]

Gregory became a team trainer for Christchurch–based netball team the Tactix, for which his wife Lisa played. [5]
