  • George Copeland Grant (9 May 1907 – 26 October 1978), known as Jackie Grant, was a West Indian cricketer who captained the Test side from 1930 to 1935. He was later a missionary in South Africa and Rhodesia.

He was the first player in Test cricket to score two unbeaten fifties in the same match. Grant went on to be a teacher in Southern Rhodesia, Trinidad and Tobago and Grenada, and inspector of schools in Zanzibar. From 1949 to 1956 he was the principal of a mission school called Adams College near Durban, until the school was forcibly closed as part of the apartheid punitive education laws. He then undertook missionary work in Rhodesia, concentrating on the education and welfare of black Africans, until the Ian Smith government refused him permission to return to the country in 1975.
