St. Paul's F.C. is a football club based on the Channel Island of Jersey. They are affiliated to the Jersey Football Association and play in the Jersey Football Combination Premiership.[1][2]

The club has a rich history of producing Jersey's finest players, with the likes of Graeme Le Saux and Brett Pitman coming through the ranks to become established professional footballers. In the 2009–10 season, they became the first club to win all six competitions in one season, by winning the league, four cups and the Upton (an inter-island cup final between the league champions of Jersey and Guernsey).[3]

In 2015, they created history by winning the Upton 9–0 against Guernsey Northerners, the biggest win in the history of the Upton.

In 2018, two players have represented the England national football C team, Euan Van De Vliet and Harry Curtis. [4]
