Steriker ('Eric')[1] Norman Hare (31 March 1900 - 30 September 1977) was an English cricketer. Hare was a right-handed batsman. The son of a manager for Barclays Bank,[1] Hare was born at Tottenham, Middlesex and educated at Chigwell School.
Hare made his first-class debut for Essex against Derbyshire in the 1921 County Championship. He made two further first-class appearances that season, against Gloucestershire and Somerset.[2] He scored a total of 117 runs in these three matches at an average of 23.40, with a high score of 98.[3] This score came in the match against Derbyshire, during which he shared in a stand of 251 for the 9th wicket with Johnny Douglas. This remains the record partnership for Essex for the 9th wicket.[4]
Having spent his career working for Royal Dutch Shell in Baghdad,[1] he died at Meadle, Buckinghamshire on 30 September 1977. His younger brother, Clifford Theodore Rippon Hare, was the father of the playwright Sir David Hare.[1]
