Mat Chapman (or sometimes Matt Chapman) (13 April 1865 – 28 November 1909) was an English cricketer active from 1890 to 1895 who played over 50 times for Leicestershire. As Leicestershire were a second-class county until 1894, his first-class debut was made for Liverpool and District in 1893. He was born in Arnesby and died in Narborough, Leicestershire. He appeared in 28 first-class matches as a right-handed batsman who sometimes kept wicket. He scored 633 first-class runs with a highest score of 56 and completed 21 catches with two stumpings.[1]

In April 1882 when he was 17-years old Chapman enlisted in the Leicestershire Regiment of the Militia or Army Reserve, he was described as a Labourer.[2]
