Clarence Everard "Nip" Pellew (21 September 1893 – 9 May 1981) was an Australian cricketer who played in 10 Tests from 1920 to 1921.

Pellew was also a leading Australian rules footballer who, due to permit problems, was only allowed to play one game for North Adelaide Football Club in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL). He played in the centre against Sturt Football Club's star player Vic Richardson (who also played Test cricket).^[1]
