Oserian Football Club is a football club based in Naivasha, Kenya.[1] They currently play in the Kenyan National Super League and are supported by the Oserian flower farm. They were promoted to the Kenyan Premier League after winning the FKL Nationwide League in 2011, but were relegated again after finishing 15th in 2012. Under the name Oserian Fastac, it won two Premier League titles,[2] but was forced to briefly wind up operations when its backers pulled out. This meant that the club had to start again from the bottom tier in order to return to the Premier League. Their major rivals are Karuturi Sports, with whom they share the Naivasha derby.

The club also has a women's football section which currently competes in the Kenyan Women's Premier League.
