Brian Kelly (born 3 November 1978, in York, England) is an international chess player. Although born in England, he moved to Limerick, Republic of Ireland when he was 2 years old, and later to Belfast, Northern Ireland when he was 12. Both his parents hold Irish citizenship[1] and he can compete for Ireland in international competitions.

He attained the title of International Master in 1998.[2] His current FIDE rating is 2488, with a highest rating of 2504 achieved in July 2005.[3]

Kelly won the Irish Chess Championship twice, outright in 1995 and jointly in 2007. In 1994, he won a Gold Medal at the Chess Olympiad playing on Board 6 for Ireland, as well as sharing first place in the Ulster Chess Championship.[1][4]

As of September 2006 he is rated as the strongest native Irish chess player, although he placed behind others such as Alexander McDonnell on the all-time list.[5][6] He has captained both the Methodist College Belfast and Cambridge University teams during his career. He holds the record for the highest score earned by an Irish player in the [https://web.archive.org/web/20070609153650/http://msoworld.com/mindzine/news/chess/oxcam/preview.html British Chess Championship.]

He is also a Go player, and has achieved the rank of second kyu whilst playing in the UK, making him one of the strongest Irish Go players.[7]
