Al-Najda Sport Club (Arabic: نادي النجدة الرياضي), was an Iraqi football team based in Baghdad, that played in the Iraqi First Division League.[1][2]

The club was dissolved by the Ministry of Interior in 2023.[3]

History

Before the foundation of Al-Najda Sport Club, there was another football team, similarly named Shortat Al-Najda, which was founded in 1960, and was affiliated with the Iraqi Police. In 1974, Shortat Al-Najda and the other Police teams were replaced in the top-flight by Al-Shorta Sports Club after the foundation of the National Clubs League.[4]

Shortat Al-Najda participated in non-IFA competitions such as the Armed Forces League from 1974 until the early 1980s when the team disbanded. In 2005, Al-Najda SC was founded.[5][non-primary source needed]
