Rocklea United Football Club are an Australian football (soccer) club from Rocklea, a suburb of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The club currently plays in the Brisbane Premier League Division 1. The club was initially formed in 1952 under the name HNK Croatia Brisbane but struggled to sustain a full squad of players for the entire season. So the club disbanded. But with the steady growth of the Croatian community in following years the club was reformed in 1957. And on the 15th of May 1957 the club was registered with the governing federation as an official soccer club. At its peak the club competed in the Brisbane Premier League.
