Alan George Ernest Ealham (born Willesborough, Ashford, Kent, 8 August 1944) was a cricketer with Kent.

He made his debut in 1966 and won his county cap in 1970. Alan captained the club between 1978 and 1980 and had his benefit in 1982. He was an outstanding fielder and perhaps unlucky not to win international honours.

He is the father of Mark Ealham who also played cricket for Kent and England.
