John Colin Scholey (28 September 1930 – 7 September 2010) was an English first-class cricketer who played ten matches for Worcestershire as a wicket-keeper in the early 1950s.
He twice made five dismissals in an innings. The first occasion was against Sussex at Eastbourne in August 1952, when he claimed four catches and a stumping.[1] The other was in what proved to be his final first-class game, against Lancashire at Worcester in July 1953; on this occasion all five of his victims were caught.[2]
Scholey died on 7 September 2010, at the age of 79.[3][4]
