Carlton Soccer Club is a defunct Australian football (soccer) club. It participated in the National Soccer League from the 1997/98 season until round eight of the 2000/2001 season, after which it folded. The club was strongly linked to the Carlton Australian Rules club, and suffered from poor crowds. It was suspected that these ties stopped crowds from growing as supporters of other Australian rules teams would not support Carlton Soccer Club.

On the field, Carlton had a successful debut season, coming runner up to South Melbourne. They were unable to make the finals the next year, but bounced back in season 1999/2000, being beaten in the Preliminary Final by eventual champion Wollongong. But it was to set to be the last hurrah, as Carlton's financial woes forced the withdrawal of the side from the 2000/01 season after eight rounds.

Former players include Marco Bresciano, Vince Grella, Archie Thompson and Joshua Kennedy, all members of Australia's squad for the 2006 FIFA World Cup as well as former internationals Simon Colosimo and Andrew Marth and A-League players Daniel Allsopp, Robbie Middleby and Andrew Packer.

It has recently been reported that the former owners of the club, headed by sports agent Peter Jess, are still receiving significant payments when former Carlton players transfer between clubs in Europe.
