Ben MacDougall (born 25 May 1977 in Sydney, New South Wales) is an International rugby union player who made a successful transition from rugby league. He primarily plays at Centre.

Ben MacDougall has three siblings, Adam MacDougall, Luke MacDougall and Scott MacDougall. All three having played in the Australian based National Rugby League competition. Adam, the oldest of the four MacDougall's having won two premiership's with the Newcastle Knights as well as representing Australia on 11 occasions.

MacDougall played rugby union in Scotland for three years from 2004 to 2007, representing the Scotland national rugby union team. MacDougall qualified for Scotland through his grandfather, Alan, who came from Glasgow. MacDougall was targeted by Matt Williams, the former Scotland coach in 2004. Williams did not rate Scotland's centre's and, having failed to persuade MacDougall's older brother Adam, a rugby league international, he recruited Ben.[1] He made his Scotland debut against Wales on 12 February 2006 in a 2006 Six Nations Championship match at the Millennium Stadium.

MacDougall joined Edinburgh Rugby in 2004 and in 2006 moved to the Border Reivers.[1] MacDougall joined London Scottish in the 2010/10 season and helped them win the RFU National One trophy and get promoted into the RFU The Championship for the 2011/2012 season.

Before departing for Scotland in 2005, MacDougall played for the Western Suburbs Magpies, the Newcastle Knights, the Northern Eagles, the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles and the Melbourne Storm in the National Rugby League.
