Somerset Football Club, also known as the "Sharks", is a soccer club which represents Somerset in the Tasmanian Northern Championship. The club also fields teams in all junior divisions, as well as women's teams. Somerset play their home games at Somerset Recreation Ground, in Somerset, Tasmania.

Somerset Football Club was formed in 1979 by a dedicated group of player on the northwest coast seeking a club for the Somerset and Wynyard area. They began their life playing home games at Wynyard High School, before relocating to the Somerset Recreation Ground.

In 2006 Somerset won the Tasmanian Championship, having won the Northern Premier League title, and then going on to beat Glenorchy Knights 3-1 (2-2aet) in a penalty shootout, for the first time ever. Somerset won the Northern Premier League again in 2007, 2013, 2014 and 2015
