William Barclay Delacombe (20 July 1860 – 14 October 1911) was an Ascension Island-born English cricketer. He played for Derbyshire between 1892 and 1900.
Delacombe was born in Georgetown, Ascension Island, and was probably the son of Captain William Addis Delacombe of the Royal Marines, who took command at San Juan Island in 1867 and had new quarters built for his family there.[1]
Delacombe became secretary of Derbyshire County Cricket Club in 1889.[2] He scored 86 in a match for the Incogniti in 1892 and made his playing debut for Derbyshire, then out of the league, also in the 1892 season. He made his initial first-class appearance in the 1894 season against Surrey and played sporadically between 1896 and 1900 with three games in the 1897 season, two games in the 1896 season and 1900 season and one game in other years.
Delacombe played 13 innings in 10 first class matches with an average of 9.50 and a top score of 23 not out. He bowled twelve overs and did not take a wicket.[3]
Delacombe continued as secretary until his retirement in 1908.[2] He died in Nottingham three years later aged 51.
