Pine Rivers United are an Australian football (soccer) club from Strathpine, a suburb of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The club was formed in 1967, and currently play in the Brisbane Premier League.

Pine Rivers United Sports Club is located in the heart of Pine Rivers Shire at Wendy Allison Park facing busy Samsonvale Road, Strathpine. It is a fully licensed club with gaming machines and caters for men's soccer, women's soccer and junior soccer as well as netball and social darts. Whilst a multi-sports club, the Club's core sport is First Division soccer and as such attracts talented junior players and their families from outlying areas such as Redcliffe, Caboolture and Bribie Island and nearby districts such as Sandgate, Albany Creek, Petrie and Kallangur.

The Club was formed as a soccer club in 1967 by a local man Jack Gurteen, from a group of Pine Rivers High School students who used to kick a ball around in their lunch time. The lads approached Jack and a game was arranged with Redcliffe City U14's at Redcliffe. The Pine Rivers team won 5-3! As a result, parents of the winning team decided to get together and start a club. At the same time a number of youngsters from Lawnton State School came along and asked for a game. They were 9-12 year olds. Jack arranged a game against Zillmere, but Rivers lost 16-0. The Club later became incorporated as a multi-sports club. The current clubhouse was built in 1978.
