John Colin Scholey (born 28 September 1930) is a former English first-class cricketer who played ten matches for Worcestershire as a wicket-keeper in the early 1950s.

He twice made five dismissals in an innings. The first occasion was against Sussex at Eastbourne in August 1952, when he claimed four catches and a stumping.[1] The other was in what proved to be his final first-class game, against Lancashire at Worcester in July 1953; on this occasion all five of his victims were caught.[2]
