Arthur Hoare (16 September 1840 – 26 December 1896) was an English amateur cricketer. Hoare was a right-handed batsman, who played in first-class cricket matches for both Sussex County Cricket Club and Kent County Cricket Club. He played in a number of non-first-class matches for teams such as MCC between 1863 and 1883.[1][2]
