Calder never appeared in a first-class game, although he did play for the Surrey Second XI in 1920, scoring 0 and 6 not out and bowling four wicketless overs for 21 against Staffordshire.
His father encouraged him to continue to play cricket, but he decided to concentrate on golf and tennis instead.
He was not tracked down until 1994, the year before his death, when the cricket historian Robert Brooke traced him to a nursing home in Cape Town.
Calder said he had not known of the honour and had not played cricket since school, more than three-quarters of a century earlier.
