William Henry Prosser (16 July 1870 – 30 June 1952) was a Welsh-born schoolmaster and a cricketer who played in a single first-class cricket match for Cambridge University in 1893.[1] He was born at Devauden, Monmouthshire and died at Heacham, Norfolk.
The son of the rector of Devauden, Prosser was educated at Selwyn College, Cambridge.[2] From 1891 to 1895 he played occasional minor cricket for Monmouthshire as a lower-order batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler.[1] But his only appearance in first-class cricket at Cambridge was in a 12-a-side match against the Gentlemen of England; he batted at No 12 in his only innings and failed to score, and he bowled 10 overs and failed to take a wicket.[3]
Prosser graduated from Cambridge University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1893.[2] He became a schoolmaster and was headmaster of Snettisham Grange Preparatory School in Norfolk.[2]
