Gustav Ernest "George" Schmoll (25 November 1870 – 20 October 1942) was a New Zealand cricketer. He played first-class cricket for Auckland and Wellington between 1903 and 1913.
Schmoll played as a wicket-keeper. In January 1904, playing for Auckland in his second first-class match, he took four catches and a stumping in the first innings, equalling the New Zealand first-class record for dismissals in an innings that was not beaten until 1964–65 (by Robin Schofield).Arthur Carman (ed), The Shell Cricket Almanack of New Zealand 1970, Sporting Publications, Tawa, 1970, p. 186. He moved from Auckland to Wellington in 1906. He had a high reputation as a wicket-keeper, and would probably have played more first-class cricket but for his unreliable batting.
Schmoll worked as an upholsterer.
