Launceston Football Club, is a football (soccer) club which represents Launceston in the Tasmanian Northern Premier League. It should not be mistaken with the Australian rules football club of the same name, or with fellow Launceston team, Launceston City. The club also fields teams in all junior divisions, as well as women's teams. Launceston FC play their home games at Birch Avenue, in Launceston, Tasmania.
Launceston Football Club was a re-branded form of the old club "Launceston Matric" formed in 1989. Matric was promoted to the Tasmanian State League from the Northern Premier League for the 1988 season, and re-branded the following season. However they only lasted two seasons in the top flight before withdrawing in 1990 back to the Northern Premier League.
Launceston Matric had been successful in lower division competitions, however top tier successes have eluded them, and they fail to live up to the successes of fellow "Tamar-side" rivals.
