Brian Andrew Courtice (born 30 March 1961) is an Australian cricketer. He played in 49 first-class and 16 List A matches for Queensland between 1982 and 1988.[1]

Born in Brisbane, Courtice attended Brisbane Boys' College and the University of Queensland.[2] He was an opening batsman. He made his highest first-class score of 144 in the 1983–84 Sheffield Shield, when he and Robbie Kerr put on 289 for the first wicket against Victoria.[3] In 1985–86 he toured Zimbabwe with the Young Australia XI, when he also opened the batting with Kerr.[4]

Courtice left first-class cricket in the late 1980s when he decided to concentrate on his law studies. He was 26 when he played his last match for Queensland.[5] He set a record for the Queensland Cricket Association competition in 1992–93 when he scored 949 runs.[5]

Courtice is the managing director of his own legal practice, Courtice Legal in Brisbane.[6]
