Port Adelaide Soccer Club (PASC), originally Port Adelaide British Football Club and also known as the Port Adelaide Pirates, is a semi-professional soccer club based in Taperoo, a north-western suburb of Adelaide in the City of Port Adelaide Enfield. The club plays in State League 2 South Australia after being relegated to the fourth tier of Australian soccer in 2023.
Port Adelaide is the oldest surviving soccer club in South Australia, having been founded in 1905 after being one of two clubs to be created out of Woodville FC, which had been formed in 1903. From 1993 until 2018, the club was known as Port Adelaide Lion following a merger with Ukrainian Sports Club Lion. This was one of the club's many mergers, including earlier ones with Cheltenham in 1914 and Port Thistle in 1956. In the beginning, Port Adelaide SC played at a ground adjacent to Alberton Oval. It has been based at their current home ground, Ngarrpadla Josie Agius Reserve, since 2019, after moving from their previous home at John Hart Reserve.
The club have won five first division titles,[when?] their last coming in 1931, and the Federation Cup on four occasions, most recently in 1979.
