Darren Kelly is a Northern Irish footballer who plays for Scarborough Athletic as a defender. He is also a coach with York City.

He captained the side and eventually left after his contract expired in 2006, when he rejoined Derry for a second spell. He featured for the side in the UEFA Cup and UEFA Champions League and attracted the attention of several Scottish Premier League clubs, before eventually joining York City in the Conference Premier in 2007. After leaving York in 2009 he rejoined Portadown, who released him in 2011. Kelly then resumed his career in English non-League football, playing for Stalybridge Celtic, Garforth Town and Scarborough Athletic.
