Gavin Richard Moffat (born 7 September 1972) is an English former first-class cricketer.

Moffat was born at Morecambe in September 1972. He was educated at Lancaster Royal Grammar School, before matriculating to Durham University.[1][2] From there he proceeded to Homerton College at the University of Cambridge.[3] While studying at Cambridge, he played first-class cricket for Cambridge University Cricket Club in 1996, making eight appearances.[4] Playing as a medium pace bowler in the Cambridge side, he took 8 wickets, but struggled against county opposition, which is reflected by his bowling average of 98.50. His best bowling figures were 2 for 50.[5] As a lower order batsman, he scored 45 runs with a highest score of 27.[6] His brother, Philip, was also a first-class cricketer.

After graduating from Cambridge, Moffat began a career in education and was a languages teacher at Stowe School.[7] He is currently the assistant headteacher of Akeley Wood School, specifically head of the sixth form AW6.[8]
