Richard Averill Lloyd (4 August 1891 – 23 December 1950) was an Irish cricketer[1] and rugby union player.[2] At cricket, he was a right-handed batsman[1] and right-arm medium pace bowler[3] who played two first-class matches for the Ireland cricket team,[4] also playing for Lancashire.[5] In rugby union, he was a fly-half who played 19 times for the Ireland national rugby union team, scoring 72 points, and was regarded as one of the best goal-kickers of his time. He is regarded by his school, Portora Royal School, as one of their most famous pupils, alongside Samuel Beckett and Oscar Wilde.[3]
