Thomas Berecry (15 June 1886 – 28 July 1962) was an Australian rugby league player.
A centre and winger, Berecry played for North Sydney and was a member of the national team (under the name "Australasia") for a 1911–12 tour of Great Britain. He was used mostly on the wing and scored four tries in their win over Barrow, followed by a hat–trick against Runcorn.[1] Only selected for the third and final international, Berecry was again utilised on a wing and contributed two tries in a 33–8 win, securing the series for Australasia.[2][3]
Berecry owned the land on which the Manly Warringah Leagues Club was built.[4]
