William John Chudley (born 17 March 1986) is a rugby union player who plays at Scrum half for Coventry in the RFU Championship.

He made his debut for Exeter against Sale Sharks on 1 September 2012.

Will joined Exeter from rivals Newcastle Falcons, Chudley joined Newcastle from Bedford Blues after catching the eye of Newcastle coach Alan Tait during Bedfords play-off semi-final defeat by Worcester in 2011.

He was in the team when Exeter Chiefs defeated Wasps to be crowned champions of the 2016-17 English Premiership.

In December 2017, he was awarded Try of the week for his week 11 try against Northampton Saints.

On 20 March 2018, it was announced that Chudley would leave Exeter to join local rivals Bath ahead of the 2018–19 season.
