'''Modbury SC''',<ref>{{Cite Twitter profile|modburysc}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Latest News |url=https://www.modburysc.com.au/ |website=Modbury Soccer Club |access-date=14 October 2022}}</ref> commonly known as '''Modbury Jets''', is an Australian semi-professional soccer club based in [[Adelaide]], [[South Australia]]. Its senior men's teams currently compete in the [[National Premier Leagues South Australia]] and senior women's team in the Women's State League. The club also fields junior teams for girls and boys. The seniors play their home matches at Smith Partners Stadium in Ridgehaven, north of Adelaide and the Juniors play at Burragah Reserve, Modbury North.

'''Modbury Soccer Club''' is a not-for-profit community football club based in Modbury, South Australia. Founded in 1964, the club has a long-standing history in local football.

It is affiliated with Football South Australia (FSA), the South Australian Amateur Soccer League (SAASL), and the national governing body, Football Australia (formerly Football Federation Australia). Through these affiliations, the club is indirectly connected to FIFA, the international governing body of association football.

Over the years, Modbury Soccer Club has grown from its original ‘working men’s’ foundation to a club that caters for all age groups and abilities. The club fields teams in Senior Men's and Senior Women's, Junior boys and girls, and MiniRoos competitions. It also fields teams in the SA Amateur Soccer Soccer League.

==History== The club was first founded in 1964, however they were forced to wait a year in order to play in the 1965 season. For reasons unknown, they played in the 3rd division reserve league while their reserve side played in the 4th division.

The club almost became the Modbury Prague Soccer Club in 1968 when members of the Czechoslovak Australian community in the area wanted to promote the game at Modbury. However the move was abandoned when club members vetoed the idea.

The club's facilities have been steadily improving over the years. Its ground was selected as one of the training venues for teams competing in the 2000 Olympic Games. Modbury is a popular community based club located in the Modbury/Tea Tree Gully area. The club fields both seniors and juniors teams.

In 2014, the Jets celebrated their fiftieth year as a club, and finished the season by clinching promotion through the play-off finals series.
