George Loveridge (15 October 1890 – 28 November 1970) was a New Zealand rugby union player. A wing three-quarter, Loveridge represented Taranaki at a provincial level, and was a member of the New Zealand national side, the All Blacks, in 1913 and 1914. He played 11 matches for the All Blacks but did not appear in any internationals.[2]

During World War I, Loveridge—a telegraphist before the war—served overseas as a sapper with the New Zealand Field Engineers from 1916 to 1919. He served again during World War II as a sergeant with 2nd Battalion Taranaki Regiment, carrying out administrative duties in New Zealand between 1942 and 1943.[1]

George's cousin, Norm Loveridge, represented New Zealand at rugby league.
