Hubert Maurice Gorringe (30 January 1886 – 28 August 1958) was an English cricketer. Gorringe's batting style is unknown. He was born at Eastbourne, Sussex.

Gorringe made two first-class appearances for Sussex in 1920 County Championship. His first match came against Northamptonshire at the County Ground, Northampton, with his second match coming against Lancashire at Old Trafford.[1] In his first match, Northamptonshire won the toss and elected to bat first, making 119 all out. In response in their first-innings, Sussex made 451 all out, with Gorringe scoring 17 runs in the innings before he was dismissed by William Wells. Northamptonshire then made 415 all out in their second-innings, leaving Sussex with a target of 83 for victory. Sussex reached their target with seven wickets to spare, with Gorringe ending the chase not out on 3.[2] In his second match, Sussex batted first and made 102 all out, with Gorringe being dismissed for a duck by Lawrence Cook. Lancashire were then dismissed for 179 in their first-innings, to which Sussex responded in their second-innings by making just 97 all out, with Gorringe top-scoring with 29 before he was dismissed by Dick Tyldesley. Lancashire won the match by 10 wickets.[3]

He died at Hove, Sussex, on 28 August 1958.
