Michael Ian Yeabsley (born 1972) is an English former first-class cricketer.

Son of former Devon player, Doug Yeabsley, and brother of fellow first-class player Richard, Yeabsley was educated at Haberdashers' Aske's Boys' School and then Durham University (1991–1994), where he studied Geography and represented Durham University RFC.[1][2] He undertook his PGCE at Cambridge University as a member of Queens' College, and trained under Rex Walford.[1]

During his brief cricket career, he was an off-break bowler. At Cambridge, he represented the university cricket club, playing just two first-class matches (both in 1995), taking two wickets at a cost of 42 runs each. After university, he became a teacher, and was appointed Head of Geography and, initially, Master in Charge of Cricket at Aldenham School in 2008.[1][3]
