Bodajk FC Siófok, generally shortened to BFC Siófok, is a Hungarianfootball club based in Siófok, a small town on the shores of Lake Balaton. The club was founded in 1921 as Siófok SE. The word Bodajk in the club's name stems from a merger with Bodajk FC in 2005. The colours of the club are yellow and blue. BFC Siófok plays its home matches in the Révész Géza utcai Stadion which has a capacity of 10,500.
In the Hungarian cup final of 1984, BFC Siófok defeated Rába Vasas ETO Gyõr, 2–1 and thus achieved its only major success.
BFC Siófok has been a member of the first division, the Nemzeti Bajnokság I, from 1985 to 1994, 1996 to 2000, and from 2002 to 2004. After the 2006/07 season, the club was again promoted to the NB I. However, this promotion was aided by the deduction of eight points from main rivals Haladás Szombathely for their use of ineligible players.
