Police are investigating an attempted arson at the Rosebery/Toorak Football Clubrooms in Rosebery overnight.
Tasmania Fire Service and emergency services were called to the scene in Primrose St about 2.45am, after a neighbour heard a window being smashed.
Quick action by the neighbour with a small fire extinguisher saw the fire extinguished prior to the brigades' arrival.
Damage to the building was minimal, with some scorching and a broken window.
TFS investigations today determined the fire had been deliberately lit, and it is believed some object with an accelerant was thrown through the window.
Police are seeking any information from the public, including any details around a small dark coloured hatchback that was seen leaving the area immediately after.
Anyone with information should contact Police on 131444 or Crime Stoppers on 1800333000 or crimestopperstas.com.au, quoting reference number 775130.
