Harold Frank Bichel (3 September 1911 – 7 March 1995) was an Australian rugby league player.

Bichel, a forward, mainly featured in the front and second row. He was also a capable goal–kicker.[1]

In 1935, Bichel was the sole Ipswich representative on Australia's tour of New Zealand, where he scored a try in a non–international against a New Zealand XIII in Hawera. He wasn't called upon for the three Test matches.[2]

Bichel had a stint with Mackay in the late 1930s, before continuing his career coaching in Cairns and later serving as a North Queensland selector. He returned south in 1947.[3]
