Ainsworth was born at Freshfield in Lancashire, and was educated at Marlborough College, entering in 1890 and leaving in 1893.[1] He made one appearance in first-class cricket for H. D. G. Leveson Gower's XI against Oxford University at Oxford in 1902.[2] He batted once during the match, scoring 10 runs without being dismissed.[3] He served with the Royal Garrison Artillery during the latter stages of the First World War as a second lieutenant. He was promoted to the rank of lieutenant in August 1919. He resigned his commission in April 1920, retaining the rank of lieutenant.
