Clint Dolezel (born March 25, 1970) is an American football coach and former quarterback in the Arena Football League (AFL). He currently serves as the head football coach at East Texas A&M University.

Dolezel played as a quarterback in the AFL before becoming the head coach of the Philadelphia Soul from 2013 until the league folded in 2019. He played college football for the East Texas State Lions, and was in the AFL for 13 seasons from 1995 to 2008. Dolezel first became a head coach in 2010 with the San Angelo Stampede Express of the Indoor Football League (IFL). After just a single season, Dolezel returned to the AFL as the head coach of the Dallas Vigilantes. After the Vigilantes franchise suspended operations, Dolezel joined the Philadelphia Soul as their offensive coordinator under head coach Doug Plank. Plank left the Soul following the 2012 season, and the team promoted Dolezel to head coach. He was named the inaugural head coach of the Frisco Fighters in the IFL before the 2020 season. On December 7, 2022, it was announced that Dolezel would return to his alma mater, East Texas A&M University, to serve as the school's head football coach.

As an AFL player, he was originally signed by the Milwaukee Mustangs. In his career, he also played for the Texas Terror / Houston ThunderBears, Grand Rapids Rampage, Las Vegas Gladiators, and the Dallas Desperados. Dolezel was also a scout for the Dallas Cowboys in 2007.
