South Hobart Football Club is a Football (soccer) Club which represents South Hobart in the Tasmanian Southern Premier League. The club also fields teams in all junior divisions, as well as womens teams. South Hobart play their home games at South Hobart Football Ground, in the South Hobart, Tasmania, a pictureseque ground at the base of the slopes of Mount Wellington with sweeping views over the city and Derwent River.
South Hobart Football Club is one of the oldest football clubs still running in Tasmania, as well as one of the most successful. They have won the State Championship a record 12 times. Add to this a remarkable 15 Southern titles, 11 KO Cups, and 6 Falkinder cups plus various other trophies, and they stand out as Tasmania's most successful club. They did not compete prior to World War I, however South Hobart were one of the teams to enter in the first season following the war. South Hobart won the league for the first time in their first season, 1919, and won the next five in a row. Although successful through their existence, they have failed to emulate this early glory. The 60's saw the influx of ethnic based clubs, and South Hobart has never returned to its former glory since that time.
