Michael Trebilcock (born 29 November 1944) is an English retired professional footballer. He played primarily as a winger and is known for scoring twice in the 1966 FA Cup Final for Everton, becoming the first black player to score in an FA Cup Final. Trebilcock is described as a "black mixed heritage player" by sociologist Mark Christian, who notes that the label of first black Everton player is often wrongly given to Cliff Marshall, "due to [Trebilcock's] ambiguous black mixed heritage". Players of mixed heritage are now widely regarded as 'Black' e.g. Walter Tull and Trebilcock was acknowledged as Everton's first Black player by authors Bill Hern and David Gleave in their book Football's Black Pioneers - The Stories of the First Black Players to Represent the 92 League Clubs.
