The Channel Saints Football Club is an Australian rules football club currently playing in the Australian Football League Southern Football League (Tasmania), also known as the Southern Football League, in Tasmania, Australia.

Origins

The Channel Football Club was formed in 1967 after the disastrous 1967 Tasmanian bushfires, which decimated the Channel region.
With the demise of the Margate, Kettering, Snug and Woodbridge Football Clubs, the Saints were formed to incorporate all four of these clubs.
Channel adopted the Saints emblem and Red, White & Black playing strip and were firstly based at Margate before moving to the club's present Snug Park headquarters.
Channel left the Huon Football Association at the end of 1995 and joined the then STFL (now SFL) in 1996 whereby they won the League's inaugural Senior premiership.
