Saint Louis Suns United, is a football (soccer) club based in Victoria, Seychelles. The club was formed as the result of a 2007 merger between Saint-Louis (founded in 1985) and Sunshine (1993).[3][4]

Saint Louis won 13 Division One League titles between 1979 and 1994, and made several appearances in continental competitions. Sunshine won its first in 1995, after only two years in existence.[5] The following year Sunshine made its debut in international competition as it represented Seychelles in the African Cup of Champions Clubs. They managed a home win but failed to proceed beyond the preliminary round as they lost on aggregate by one goal to the more experienced Ethiopian team Saint-George SA.[6] From its foundation the team has kept on playing in the top division.
