Potenza Sport Club is an Italian football club, based in Potenza, Basilicata. The club was founded in 2004 as A.S.C. Potenza, after the merger of the old A.S.C. Potenza (founded in 1983) and F.C. Potenza (founded in 1921 and previously known as Potenza S.C.), and changed its name to Potenza S.C. in 2006. Potenza currently plays in Lega Pro Prima Divisione. The team's colors are red and blue.

Potenza was promoted in Serie C1 on the 18th of June 2007 by beating Benevento over two games in the Serie C2 2006-07 playoff final.
