Cecil Everard Sandford (2 August 1874 - 12 October 1946[1]) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong and St Kilda in the Victorian Football League (VFL). He was educated at Geelong College.[2]

Sandford spent the 1897 and 1898 seasons at Geelong, but only put together eight games.[3] He was instantly appointed captain of St Kilda, when he joined them in 1901. His stint as captain began well, with the club ending a four-year win-less streak in his first game for the club.[4] After losing the captaincy for the 1901 season, he had a good year, topping St Kilda's goal-kicking, with nine goals. He later served as the ports master of Scotch College.[5]
