George Ulyett (21 October 1851 – 18 June 1898) was an English all-round cricketer, noted particularly for his very aggressive batsmanship.
A well-liked man (who, in later years, kept a pub in his native Sheffield), Ulyett was popularly known as "Happy Jack", once musing memorably that Yorkshire played him only for his good behaviour and his whistling.
A fine all round sportsman, Ulyett played football in the 1882–83 and 1883–84 seasons as goalkeeper for Sheffield Wednesday.
