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 the time. He is rated by his school, Portora Royal School, as one of their most famous pupils, alongside Samuel Beckett and Oscar Wilde.[3]
