Donald Frederick White (born 16 January 1926 in Earls Barton, England, died 21 April 2007) was an English rugby union footballer and coach.
He was educated at Wellingborough Grammar School and at the age of 17 made his debut for Northampton, playing at prop.
In 1964 he became managing director and chairman of his family's shoe business, which received a Queen's award for export achievement in 1990.
White said of his debut - where he played at prop - "I thought I'd get a fearful hiding, but I emerged unscathed.
His most famous counties match was when he scored Leicestershire and East Midlands' only try in a 3–3 draw with the 1960 Springboks (South Africa).
According to former Northampton player Bob Taylor, "Don was chosen because he was the most forward-thinking coach in England".
Of the eleven games England played with White in charge they won three, and drew one and lost seven.
He was married to wife Barbara and had four children - Ian, Jill, Nick, and Sally - and nine grandchildren.
His funeral on 4 May 2007 was attended by hundreds of mourners, including Northampton's club chairman Keith Barwell.
