Edward Lisle Goldsworthy (Teddy) Hoad (January 29, 1896-March 5, 1986) was a West Indian cricketer who played in West Indies' inaugural Test tour of England. He was the captain in the West Indies' first home Test in 1930.
Hoad was born in Richmond, St Michael, Barbados. Although he had modest Test performances, he had some impressive results in first class matches against English sides in both the 1928 and 1929-30 tours, scoring 149* against Worcestershire in 1928 and 147 for Barbados in 1930.
He died in Bridgetown, Barbados at the age of ninety. His son also played for Barbados.
