Richard Chee Quee is a former first-class cricketer.

Chee Quee is notable for being the second player of Chinese origin to play first-class cricket in Australia after Hunter Poon in 1923. A cult figure and dashing bat, he played from 1992-93 to 2000-01 for New South Wales. He continued to score heavily for Randwick, and when he retired at the end of the 2005-06 campaign, he had made almost 11,000 runs for them, and only six other batsmen had ever made more in Sydney grade cricket.

Today, he is the lead vocalist in the rock band Six & Out and captains South Sydney in the Shires Competition of the Sydney Cricket Association.
