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.[3]

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.[4]
