Kenneth Roy Rickards (22 August 1923 – 21 August 1995) was a West Indian international cricketer who played in two Test matches from 1948 to 1952. He was born in Rollington Town in Jamaica and made his first class debut in 1946.

He played as a professional in the Lancashire League for Haslingden in 1951 in one game, and was brought back to Jamaica by public subscription for the 1953/4 tour by the MCC. However he failed in the final tour match and did not make the Test side.
