Szombathelyi Haladás is a Hungarian football club based in Szombathely. Haladás is the Hungarian word for progress. The club, which was founded in 1919, plays its home games at Rohonci úti Stadion which has a capacity of 12,000 (4,000 seats). The club colours are green and white.

Haladás reached the Hungarian Cup final in the years 1975, 1993 and 2002. Since its first promotion in 1936 the club has spent 51 seasons in the first division of the Hungarian league, the Nemzeti Bajnokság I (NB I).

After the 2006/07 season, the club missed out on promotion to the NB I because of an 11 points deduction for the use of ineligible players. BFC Siófok was promoted in the place of Haladás.

Season 2007/08 Haladás won the second division, and started the next season in the highest level in Hungary again.

In the 2008/09 season Haladás reached the best rank ever in the history of the team: "Hali" won the bronze medal, and got the right to start the qualification rounds in the Europa League.
