Joe Stephen Gatting (born 25 November 1987 in Brighton) is a cricketer and former footballer who played for Hampshire until he was released at the end of the 2015 season. Gatting previously played football for Brighton & Hove Albion as a striker before being released on 31 October 2008. He however returned to football part-time for one season with Whitehawk.

Gatting attended Cardinal Newman Catholic School in Hove, followed by Brighton College. Gatting has also played for Sussex County Cricket Club's academy. Gatting is the son of former Brighton & Hove Albion defender Steve Gatting and nephew of former England cricket captain Mike Gatting.

Gatting came through the youth ranks at Brighton & Hove Albion scoring a hatful of goals for the youth team. Gatting made his first team debut against Southampton on 2 January 2006.

On 13 September 2007, Gatting joined Conference National side Woking on loan for 3 months after finding first-team opportunities at the Albion difficult after the arrival of summer signing Nicky Forster.

Gatting returned to Brighton in December 2007 and once again found it difficult to find first-team opportunities.

At the start of the 2008–09 season, Gatting joined Conference South side Bognor Regis Town on a month's loan.

After failing to make an appearance during the 2008–09 season, Gatting was released from Brighton on 31 October 2008, before leaving football altogether to take up a career in cricket.
