St George FC, commonly called Saints or Budapest, is a semi-professional Australian soccer club based in the St George district in the south of Sydney. The club was founded by Hungarian immigrants in 1957 as Budapest Club and by 1965 was renamed to St. George-Budapest Club.

Their former home ground was the St George Stadium, but due to its dilapidated state, St George has played its youth and senior fixtures at Ilinden Sports Centre since 2018.
St George FC Women compete in the New South Wales League One Womens, third tier of Australian women's soccer. Their home ground is Ilinden Sports Centre from 2023 and Fraser Park for 2022 season, due to the dilapidated state of their former home ground, St George Stadium.
