Kaye Scott (born June 2, 1984) is an Australian boxer who is active as an elite amateur athlete. She is currently ranked 3rd internationally in the women's light heavy division after winning silver at the Women's World Championships (19-27 May 2016) in Astana, Kazakhstan. Kaye is Sydney born and based and has been competing for 7 years both in Australia and internationally.
Kaye competed in the Women's Middle division at the 2014 Commonwealth Games but didn't achieve a medal, losing to Lauren Price of Wales in the quarter finals.
Kaye has actively worked to support Women's boxing in Australia and boxing in Australia in general. After the ban was lifted on women's boxing in NSW, she took part in the first female bout in NSW, an exhibition fight with Ramona Stephenson in October 2009. Kaye captained the 2014 Commonwealth Games boxing team (the first time female boxing was included in the Commonwealth Games), helping to mentor and support other Australian male and female boxers.
