Kristy Doyle (born 8 December 1980) is an Australian netball player.

She showed early promise as a shooter for the New South Wales state team in 1998, making the Australian 21 and under squad in the same year as a 17-year-old. She represented the Sydney Sandpipers in the national Commonwealth Bank Trophy in 1998 and 1999, and impressed enough that she was awarded a scholarship to the Australian Institute of Sport in 2000.[1][2] This saw Doyle spend two years training at the AIS and playing in the AIS team in the South Australian state league, the Dairy Farmers Cup.[3] She was ultimately chosen as the vice-captain of the national 21 and under team and promoted to captain in 2001.[4]

After two relatively successful years at the Australian Institute of Sport, Doyle was widely seen as a rising star of the competition, and was recruited by the Melbourne Kestrels for the 2002 season.[5]
