**Dave Huson** (born 5 January 1951) is a retired [footballer](/source/Association_football) from [Jersey](/source/Jersey) who played professionally in the [North American Soccer League](/source/North_American_Soccer_League_(1968%E2%80%9384)) and [Major Indoor Soccer League](/source/MISL_I).

In 1979, Huson signed with the [California Surf](/source/California_Surf) of the [North American Soccer League](/source/North_American_Soccer_League_(1968%E2%80%9384)). In 1980, the Surf sent Huson to the [Memphis Rogues](/source/Memphis_Rogues). At the end of the season, [Nelson Skalbania](/source/Nelson_Skalbania) purchased the Rogues and moved them to Calgary renaming the team the [Calgary Boomers](/source/Calgary_Boomers). Huson then played the 1980–81 NASL indoor season with the Boomers before being traded to the [Chicago Sting](/source/Chicago_Sting). On 20 March 1982, the Sting traded Huson, [John Tyma](/source/John_Tyma) and a 1983 third-round draft pick to the [Tulsa Roughnecks](/source/Tulsa_Roughnecks_(1978%E2%80%9384)) in exchange for [Duncan McKenzie](/source/Duncan_McKenzie).[1] He was back in Chicago for the 1983 season and would remain there until he was released by the team in May 1985. He then moved to the [Chicago Shoccers](/source/Chicago_Shoccers) of the [American Indoor Soccer Association](/source/American_Indoor_Soccer_Association).[2] In February 1986, Huson took over as head coach of the Shoccers. In the fall of 1986, he returned to the Sting as head of community relations. In 1999, he became the head coach of the [Rockford Raptors](/source/Rockford_Raptors) of the [Premier Development League](/source/Premier_Development_League). He also coached the [Deerfield High School](/source/Deerfield_High_School_(Illinois)) boys' soccer team. He was inducted into the Illinois State Soccer Hall of Fame in 2002.[3]
