Derek John Semmence (20 April 1938 – 29 March 2020) was an English cricketer.[1] Semmence was a right-handed batsman who bowled right-arm medium pace. He was born in Worthing, Sussex.
Semmence made his first-class cricket debut for Sussex County Cricket Club against Warwickshire in the 1956 County Championship. He played first-class cricket for Sussex until 1959.[2] Semmence served in the Royal Air Force in his early years with Sussex, which in 1957 entitled him to play first-class cricket for the Combined Services, firstly against Surrey. He played two further matches for the Combined Services, one in 1957 against Worcestershire and another in 1958 against Warwickshire.[2] Having last played first-class cricket in 1958, Semmence made a single first-class appearance for Essex in 1962 against Oxford University.[3]
In 1964, he joined Devon, making his debut for the county in the 1964 Minor Counties Championship against Berkshire.
