Brooke Peris (born 16 January 1993) is an Australian field hockey player. She is a member of the Australia women's national field hockey team.[1] Peris was awarded the title of "Northern Territory Sportsperson of the Year" in 2014.[2] She is the first cousin of former national field hockey player and former Australian senator Nova Peris. She was selected to represent Australia at the 2016 Rio Olympics.[3][1][4]

Peris qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. She was part of the Hockeyroos Olympics squad. The Hockeyroos lost 1-0 to India in the quarterfinals and therefore were not in medal contention.[5]
