Kate Elizabeth Bowen (born 15 April 1994) is an association football player who has represented New Zealand at international level.[1]

Born in Auckland, Bowen became the youngest player to represent New Zealand at recognised international level when she played in a New Zealand U-17 match against Australia U-17 on her 14th birthday in 2008.[2] Later that year she travelled to the 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup where she made a solitary appearance as a late substitute in a 3–1 win over Columbia.[3] She again represented New Zealand in 2010, this time as captain at the 2008 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Trinidad and Tobago.[4]

Bowen made her senior international début as a substitute in a 0–3 loss over to Australia on 4 March 2011.[5]
