Eastern Stars FC is a semi-professional soccer club founded in July 2007 based in Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea, although the side plays most of its home matches at the Bisini Soccer Ground in Port Moresby.

The club has competed a total of six times in the National Soccer League, and their best period came in the 2010–11 and 2011–12 Papua New Guinea National Soccer League seasons, when the side finished runners-up to Hekari United on both occasions.[2][3]

After their worst performance in six years of competition in 2014,[4] the side took an extended break from the competition before returning for the 2019 season.[5]
