Highlands Park Football Club
Highlands Park Football Club was a semi-professional Football Club based in Johanesburg, South Africa.

The club was formed in 1959 and played in the all-white National Football League until 1976, and thereafter in the multiracial NPSL until the club was sold to Jomo Sono in 1982.

Known affectionately as the Lions of the North, Highlands enjoyed considerable success and managed to combine their local home-grown footballers such as Martin Cohen, Eugene Klenhans, Larry De Freitas, Des Backos, Ricky Flynn and Stewart Lilley, with imported professionals such as Chris Chilton and Barry Bridges.
