William Joseph Reedy (8 June 1880 — 1 April 1939) was a New Zealand rugby union international.
Reedy, a forward, played rugby in his native Buller District for the White Star club, before taking up a job in the Hutt Valley when he was 27. He joined Wellington club Petone and made his representative debut with Wellington in 1907.
In 1908, Reedy was capped twice by the All Blacks against the touring Anglo-Welsh team, for the 2nd Test draw in Wellington and 3rd Test win in Auckland. The Anglo-Welsh were retrospectively classed as a British Lions side.
