Kirsty McBride (born 9 September 1985) is a Scottish football midfielder who plays for Motherwell in the SWFL 2nd Division. She has represented the Scotland women's national football team more than 50 times at senior level.

After taking up football aged eight, McBride had to leave her first club Hawthorn Boys when she was 12, moving on to Leith Athletic. She was educated at Ross High School.

McBride joined Hibernian in 1999. McBride captained Hibs Girls and was promoted to the senior team after season 2001–02. In October 2004 McBride was subject to a transfer bid from Arsenal Ladies. She featured as a late substitute in Arsenal's 3–0 FA Women's Premier League Cup final victory over Charlton Athletic at Griffin Park. She returned to Hibernian after one year away.

Prior to the 2015 season, McBride joined several of her ex Hibs teammates at ambitious Motherwell. Three months after signing, she formed part of the starting eleven which won the SWFL Second Division Cup, beating Rangers 2-6 in the Final.

In June 2003, 17–year–old McBride made her senior debut for Scotland in an 8–1 win over Portugal. She won her 50th cap in October 2009; an away victory over Greece at the Yiannis Pathiakakis Stadium.
