'''Richard Charles Lucy Court''' (23 October 1916 – 10 April 1974) was an English [[first-class cricket]]er. Court was a right-handed [[batsman (cricket)|batsman]] who bowled right-arm [[Fast bowling|fast]].<br />
<br />
Court made his first-class debut for [[Hampshire County Cricket Club|Hampshire]] against [[Lancashire County Cricket Club|Lancashire]] in the 1937 [[County Championship]]. Court played three first-class matches for Hampshire in the 1937 season and represented the club in a total of eighteen first-class matches from 1937 until 1939. Court's final first-class match for Hampshire came against [[Leicestershire County Cricket Club|Leicestershire]] during the 1939 County Championship, which was the last before the onset of the [[Second World War]] led to county cricket being cancelled until 1946, which in turn brought Court's first-class career to an end.<br />
<br />
In Court's eighteen first-class matches for Hampshire he scored 224 runs at a [[batting average (cricket)|batting average]] of 10.18 and a high score of 35. With the ball Court took 33 wickets at a [[bowling average]] of 37.21, with best figures of 4/53.<br />
<br />
Court died at [[Southampton]], [[Hampshire]] on 10 April 1974.<br />
