Stellenbosch Football Club is a South African football club established in 2016 following the relocation of Vasco da Gama.

The Chief Operating Officer at the club, Edries Burton stated "The name 'Stellenbosch FC' shows our intention of creating a club that symbolises the Cape Winelands community. We are on a pathway of building something special‚ and we want to take this community with us." The club is based in Stellenbosch in the Western Cape, having been relocated 40 km from the Parow suburb of the city of Cape Town, Cape Town.[2]

The crest of the club features a bunch of grapes, as Stellenbosch is based within the Cape Winelands District Municipality.
