Stefanie Leanne "Stef" Curtis (born 5 December 1983 in Bristol, United Kingdom) is a footballer who plays for Bristol Academy in the FA WSL. She is also a senior Republic of Ireland international. Curtis plays mainly as a midfielder or forward, but has also provided cover as an emergency goalkeeper.

In 2009–10 Curtis played her club football for Chelsea Ladies in the FA Women's Premier League National Division, the top level of women's football in England. She had previously joined Bristol Academy from South Bristol Wanderers in 1999 when the club was known as Bristol Rovers W.F.C., and became one of their longest serving players.

A cash-crisis at Bristol Academy in summer 2009 led to the departure of Manager Gary Green and several leading players. Corinne Yorston left for Arsenal, Curtis for Chelsea and Gwennan Harries for Everton.

In December 2010, Curtis was revealed to have signed for Birmingham City's FA WSL squad. After a campaign disrupted by injury, her return to Bristol Academy was announced in March 2012.

Curtis plays international football for the Republic of Ireland women's national football team. In October 2009 she suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury during a World Cup qualifier in Kazakhstan.
