Arthur Emmett (1869 – 12 November 1935) was an English cricketer. He was the third of six children of Tom Emmett and Grace Emmett.

Emmett was a medium pace bowler who played three first-class matches for Leicestershire County Cricket Club during the 1902 English cricket season. He returned his best figures of 3/48 against London County at Aylestone Road, Leicester, where his victims included the former Australian captain, Billy Murdoch. His third and final appearance was at Lord's against the Marylebone Cricket Club.[1][2]

Emmett's father, Tom, captained Yorkshire between 1878 and 1882, and played seven Test matches for England, including the inaugural Test match in 1877.

He died on 12 November 1935 in Evington, Leicestershire.[3]
