John 'Jack' William Spearink Moore (29 April 1891 – 23 June 1980) was an English first-class cricketer.

Moore was born in April 1891 at Winchfield, Hampshire. He trialled for Hampshire between 1909 and 1913,[1][2] making his debut in first-class cricket in the 1910 County Championship against Sussex at Hove. He played first-class cricket for Hampshire irregularly, making fifteen appearances.[3] He had little success with Hampshire and was unable to establish himself in the team,[1] scoring 256 runs at an average of 13.47, with a high score of 30.[4] Outside of first-class cricket, he played most of his club cricket for Basingstoke and Hartley Wintney.[5] Moore died at Basingstoke in June 1980.[1]
