Miramar Rangers AFC is an Association football club in the Wellington suburb of Miramar, New Zealand.
In 2004 it became one of the founding principal clubs of the Team Wellington franchise in the New Zealand Football Championship, and since then has won the Central League, thrashing Olympic 5-2 in a famous match at Newtown Park.
Miramar has won the Chatham Cup thrice (1966, 1992, 2004) and won the now-defunct National League twice, in 2002 and (the final NSL season) 2003.
