The Black Rock Football Club is an Australian rules football club located in the Melbourne bayside suburb of Black Rock.
The club commenced official competition play in 1913 by joining the Federal Football League (FDL). Apart from a brief period during the late 1920s in Victorian Amateur Football Association, Black Rock remained in the FDL until the early 1970s.
The club folded in 1972, but was successfully revived and entered into the East Suburban Churches Football Association in 1976. Black Rock transferred to the South East Subarban Football League in the late 1980s before that league merged with the ESCFA to form the Southern Football League.
From 2008 to 2012 the club participated in Division 2 of the Southern Football League after winning the 3rd division premiership in 2007.
At the end of the 2012 season, the Southern Football League stripped the club of their premiership points, invoking a by-law that requires all clubs to be 'financial'. Subsequently, the club was deemed to have finished last in Division 2 and was relegated to Division 3.
