Life Dacre (6 October 1896 – 28 April 1972) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played two first-class matches for Auckland between 1912 and 1914.[1]

He served overseas with the New Zealand Expeditionary Force in the First World War.[2] His younger brother Ces Dacre had a long career as a first-class cricketer in New Zealand and England. The brothers played soccer together for Auckland, but not cricket: Life's brief first-class career ended a few months before Ces's began.[3][4]
