'''Carlos Mold''' was a rugby union international and cricket international who represented Argentina's rugby side in 1910<ref name="Scrum">[http://www.scrum.com/argentina/rugby/player/2131.html Carlos Mold Profile on scrum.com]</ref> and the Argentina cricket team from 1920 to 1922.<ref name="cricket"/>
==Early life== Charles Trevor Mold was born on 20 July 1885 in Argentina.<ref name="cricket">[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/177/177254/177254.html Charles Mold at cricketarchive.com]</ref> His father, Charles Mold, was a broker who had emigrated to Argentina from England with his wife Elizabeth. Charles had a younger sister, Alice. He attended Dulwich College in England and there excelled at sport playing in the school cricket (1901–1902) and rugby sides.
==Rugby union career== Mold played his club rugby for Buenos Aires Cricket & Rugby Club and was selected to play the touring Combined British in their 1910 tour of Argentina. This was Argentina's first recognised test and although they lost to the tourists<ref name="Scrum"/> it was a great boon to rugby in the country.
==Military== During World War I, Mold was enrolled in the Inns of Court OTC, registration 14279<ref>War Office: Soldiers’ Documents, First World War ‘Burnt Documents’ (Microfilm Copies); (The National Archives Microfilm Publication WO363); Records created or inherited by the War Office, Armed Forces, Judge Advocate General, and related bodies; The National Archives of the UK (TNA), Kew, Surrey, England.</ref> His occupation at this time was a rancher.
==Cricket== As a cricketer he played for his school side, which in itself was a distinction given Dulwich College's reputation for cricket at the turn of the twentieth century. He played a number of matches for the South of Argentina vs the North of Argentina, from 21 February 1909 to 2 March 1924 and after the First World War also played in international matches for Argentina against both Chile and Brazil, opening the batting on more than one occasion.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/177/177254/Other_matches.html match list at cricketarchive.com] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110604180451/http://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/177/177254/Other_matches.html |date=June 4, 2011 }}</ref>
