He appeared in 28 first-class matches as a right-handed batsman who sometimes kept wicket. He scored 633 first-class runs with a highest score of 56 and completed 21 catches with two stumpings.[1]
In April 1882 when he was 17 years old Chapman enlisted in the Leicestershire Regiment of the Militia or Army Reserve, he was described as a Labourer.[2]
