Gold Coast Knights Soccer Club is an Australian soccer club from the city of Gold Coast, Queensland. It is a Croatian Australian backed club which was founded in 1978. The club's home ground is the Croatian Sports Centre in the suburb of Carrara.
The club competes in the Football Gold Coast BLK 1 division, the second tier of football in the Gold Coast region and third tier in Queensland, below the NPL Queensland and BLK. The Gold Coast Knights soccer club also hosted the Australian-Croatian Soccer Tournament in 1995 and again in 2012.
In 2015, the Knights just avoided relegation from BLK 1, finishing just two points above the relegated Nerang, collecting 15 points in 21 games that season.[1]
At the Club's AGM in late 2015, ambitious businessman Adrian Puljić became Chairman with some lofty goals for the coming years. The Knights immediately underwent a rebrand, which saw the Club change its logo for the 2016 season and onwards. Soon after, Gold Coast commenced work on new change rooms and the installation of tower lights for the pitches at their home facility, the Croatian Sports Centre.
