Elphin Soccer Club was an association football club based in Elphin, a suburb of Launceston, Tasmania. Elphin, along with Launceston United SC and Tamar FC, inaugurated the two-round league competition in what was then called the Northern Soccer Association in 1912.[1] They played in the Northern Premier league in the years before the Second World War.
Despite winning 6 northern titles within a period of 14 years, Elphin disappeared by the early 1930s.
