Gordon Charles Tovey (4 July 1912 – 16 April 1994) was an English first-class cricketer and schoolmaster.

Tovey was born at Salisbury, Wiltshire in July 1912. He was educated at Clifton College, where he played for the cricket eleven from 1928 to 1931.[1] Tovey made his debut in minor counties cricket for Dorset in the 1929 Minor Counties Championship.[2] He later studied at the University of Cambridge, during which he made his only appearance in first-class cricket for Cambridge University against Northamptonshire at Fenner's in 1933.[3] He continued to play minor counties matches for Dorset throughout the thirties.[2] Tovey served in the Royal Artillery in World War II, holding the rank of Second Lieutenant in October 1941.[4] Following the war, he founded the independent Tockington Manor school in Tockington, Gloucestershire.[5] His son, Richard, later served as headmaster of the school for 38 years.[6] Tovey continued to play minor counties cricket alongside his school commitments, playing until 1953, having made 131 appearances for Dorset in the Minor Counties Championship.[2] He died at Olveston, Gloucestershire, in April 1994.[5]
