Brenda Nicholls (born August 9, 1972 in Quebec City, Quebec) is a Canadian curler. She currently plays third for Marie-France Larouche out of the Club de curling Etchemin in Saint-Romuald.
Nicholls made her national curling debut at the 1991 Canadian Junior Curling Championships. She was playing fourth stones for skip Katie Arsenault. The team would finish 6-5 in round robin play. Nicholls would not return to a national championship until 1996, when her team skipped by Stephanie Marchand, earned the right to represent Quebec at the 1996 Scott Tournament of Hearts. The team would only finish round robin with a 4-7 record.
Nine years after making her first Scott appearance, Nicholls would get the chance to represent Quebec at the 2005 Scott Tournament of Hearts, this time skipping her own team. She would fail to improve on her previous record, finish round robin with a 4-7 record. Nicholls would return to the national scene at the 2007 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, this time as a fifth for Chantal Osborne. The Osborne team would finish round robin with a 4-7 record. After teaming up with Quebec skip Ève Bélisle, Nicholls would once again earn the chance to represent Quebec at the 2010 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. This time playing third, the team would finish round robin with a 5-6 record.
After Bélisle decided to take time away from curling, Nicholls would join forces with Marie-France Larouche. Playing third for Larouche, the team would win the 2012 Quebec Scotties Tournament of Hearts, earning the right to represent Quebec at the 2012 Scotties Tournament of Hearts. The team would find late success at the event winning five games in a row, finishing round robin with a 7-4 record and earning spot in the playoffs. They faced Alberta’s Heather Nedohin in the 3-4 game, where they lost 4-7. They would play in the bronze medal game against Manitoba's Jennifer Jones, where they would lose 6-8.
