George Maltby (1 October 1876 – 30 July 1924) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire in 1905.

Maltby was born in South Normanton, Derbyshire, the son of Samuel Maltby, a coal miner, and his wife Jane.[1]

Maltby made his first-class debut for Derbyshire in the 1905 season against Warwickshire in July, hitting a duck in his debut innings and scoring 4 in the second. In the same week, Maltby appeared against Leicestershire with a similar performance. In his third and final first-class appearance in an innings defeat by Sussex at Hove, Maltby was not out at the close of play. Maltby was a right-handed batsman and played 6 innings in 3 matches with a top score of 7 not out and an average of 4.40. He bowled 5 overs but took no wickets.[2]

Maltby died in Huthwaite, Nottinghamshire at the age of 48.
