Fitzroy SC (1966–1973)
Fitzroy Soccer Club was an Australian association football (soccer) club based in the inner-northern Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy. The club was founded in 1966 by the local Italian community and competed in the modern day Victorian state league system. In its eighty-year existence the club achieved three league premierships, and was nicknamed the 'Azzurri' after the Italy national football team. In its last season in 1973, the club relocated to the outer northern suburb of Fawkner and was renamed as 'Fawkner Soccer Club' before dissolving at the season's conclusion, but had no connection to the present Fawkner Soccer Club.
