Tai Po Football Club (Wofoo Tai Po, Chinese: Full:和富大埔/Simplified:大埔) is a Hong Kong football (soccer) club. The club is formed by the Tai Po District Council. The club is named after their major sponsor, Wofoo Social Enterprises.

The club entered the newly formed third 'district' division in 2002-03 season. They promoted to the Second Division the next season. In 2005-06 season, they gained the promotion to the First Division after finishing second in the Second Division, behind HKFC.

Tai Po struggled during early stage of the 2006-07 season, conceded 13 goals in the first three league matches. After the signings of a number of foreign players, the club's performance vastly improved. They recorded surprising victories against defending league champion Happy Valley and multiple cup winner Kitchee in November 2006.

Tai Po secured their First Division berth for the next season after defeating HKFC 3-0 on April 5, 2007, which also resulted in HKFC's relegation.
