Roy Messing (born March 4, 1958) is an American retired soccer goalkeeper who played in both the North American Soccer League and Major Indoor Soccer League. He is currently a Senior Managing Director at Ankura Consulting Group.

Messing, brother of Shep, played college soccer at Yale University. In 1978, Messing signed with the San Diego Sockers of the North American Soccer League. He then played for the Cincinnati Kids of the newly established Major Indoor Soccer League during the 1978-1979 indoor season. He returned to the NASL in 1979 with the Rochester Lancers. During the 1980-1981 MISL season, he played for the San Francisco Fog. However, a blow to the head led to a partially detached retina which put him out of playing for roughly a year.[1]

Messing retired in 1988. He then attended Yale University, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree before earning an MBA from Harvard University. Messing ran a goalkeepers camp called "Messing Goalkeeper Academy" in 1988 based in Suffield, Connecticut.
