Percy Arnold Goodman (3 October 1874 – 25 April 1935) was a Barbadian cricketer who toured with the first two West Indies touring sides to England in 1900 and 1906. He was one of the top West Indian batsmen of his day and was also an effective medium-pace bowler, especially in his younger days. "A big finely-built man, Goodman perhaps carries a little more flesh than a cricketer would elect to bear in a hot climate."
