Afterwards, a fresh club was started for juniors called the Taroona Junior Club. In 1978, they merged with the St. Mirren Soccer Club from Lindisfarne to form the Taroona St. Mirren Soccer Club. In 1985, after the Tasmanian Soccer Association asked clubs to have one name only, the name was changed to Taroona Football Club.
