Taringa Rovers is an Australian football (soccer) club based at Indooroopilly, in the west of Brisbane, Australia. The club was founded in 1949 by Jack Speare and Ernie Dixon.
The club started with one junior team, playing out of Moore Park (behind the Indooroopilly State School) and moved to the Indooroopilly Recreation Reserve (now named Jack Speare Park) at Fairley Street Indooroopilly, in 1955.
The club has remained in the top division of the Brisbane competition (now known as the Brisbane Premier League) since its promotion in 1983. The club has won this league once, in 1993.
