Battswood AFC is a South African football (soccer) club based in Cape Town that as of 2023 plays in the Cape District Football Association Super League.

In 1965, the club lost in the self-same competition in the semi-finals, against the eventual winners, after three replays.

In 1966 and 1968, the club lost in the final – in each match, the team was beaten by Woodside.

[3] In 1991, with huge political changes starting to take place in the country and with sports becoming unified, a major decision by the Federation Professional League meant that Battswood had to compete in the NSL 1st Division (Coastal League).

The club just missed promotion, losing out to Cape Town Spurs.
