Daniel Ross Snee (born 30 April 1984) is a New Zealand-born former international rugby union player.

Snee grew up in Lower Hutt and is the nephew of former Hawke's Bay second five-eighth Len Snee. He was a New Zealand under-19 representative player and competed briefly with Otago in 2008.[1]

A centre and first five-eighth, Snee relocated to Spain in 2010 to play rugby with Getxo. His coach at Getxo, New Zealander Bryce Bevin, recruited him alongside Brad Linklater.[2] He was a member of the Spain national team between 2013 and 2018, earning a total of 33 caps. Back in New Zealand, Snee made three appearances for Hawke's Bay in 2017, while playing club rugby with Havelock North outside Hastings.[3]
