Levi Higginson (born 1867; date of death unknown) was a footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Burslem Port Vale in the early 1890s.
Higginson probably joined Burslem Port Vale in 1890. [1] He enjoyed a successful spell with the team. He was between the sticks for two cup final victories – the North Staffordshire Charity Challenge Cup in 1891 and the Staffordshire Charity Cup in 1892. [1] He played 43 matches for the club in all; including 21 friendlies, one Football League Second Division and 17 Midland League matches. [1] However, he failed to turn up at the Athletic Ground for a league match with Grimsby Town in February 1893, after conceding two goals to them the previous month. [1] He was not selected again and was instead released at the end of 1892–93 season. [1]
