Terry Ogden (25 March 1911 – 2 March 1935) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Melbourne and Carlton in the Victorian Football League (VFL).

Ogden, born in Northcote, was the son of former Essendon captain-coach Percy and brother of teammate Gordon. Before arriving at Melbourne he had played locally for Northcote CYMS and with the Essendon reserves team.{{cite book|last1=Holmesby|first1=Russell|last2=Main|first2=Jim|title=The Encyclopedia of AFL Footballers| publisher=BAS Publishing|year=2007|isbn=978-1-920910-78-5}} A wingman, he played the first of three games for Melbourne in a thrilling win over Hawthorn at the MCG, in round 14 of the 1935 season.
