Thomas Haydn Hallam (12 April 1881 – 24 November 1958) was an English cricketer who played first-class cricket for Derbyshire in 1906 and 1907.
Hallam was born at Pilsley, Derbyshire. A right-hand batsman, he made his debut for Derbyshire in the 1906 season in August against Hampshire but made little impact. However, in his second match, against Warwickshire, he scored 68 in the first innings and 45 in the second.[1] His scores in his remaining four games in the season were more modest. He played four games in the 1907 season, and only in the first did he score in double figures.
Hallam emigrated to New Zealand in 1920.[2] In 1921 he played two games for Wairarapa in the Hawke Cup. From 1923 to 1948 he was the groundsman at Lancaster Park, the Test ground in Christchurch.[2] He died in Christchurch at the age of 77.
