Sport Club Marsala 1912 is an Italian football (soccer) club from the city of Marsala, Sicily. It was founded in 1912 and its official and historical colours are white and blue. The team is also referred to as lilybetani, after Lilybaeum, the ancient name of Marsala during the Roman period.

The first professional appearance for the club is dated 1942, when the team ended round N of Serie C in sixth place. Since then, Marsala played 28 other times at the Serie C level, narrowly missing promotion to Serie B in 1960 (second placed in the round C) and launching several young players which then obtained notoriety even at the worldwide level such as, in more recent times, Marco Materazzi and Patrice Evra.

The team declared bankruptcy in 2000, after a Serie C1 season ended with a relegation. A new team, Associazione Sportiva Marsala 2000, was founded as relocation of existing Eccellenza club Don Bosco Partinico. The team immediately promoted to Serie D, but was cancelled in 2004 immediately after another relegation after losing playoffs to Ariano Irpino, again because of financial troubles.

As of 2006, three several teams which are representing the city of Marsala: Petrosino Marsala, an Eccellenza team officially based in Petrosino but playing its home matches in Marsala; Sport Club Marsala A.S.D, a Promozione club; and Sport Club Marsala 1912, the direct heir of the historical local club, re-registered to the Italian Football Federation in 2005, which gained promotion from Seconda Categoria in 2006/2007.
