Founded
1967; 57 years ago (1967), as Al Irshad Sporting Club
Founded in 1967 as Al Irshad SC, the club changed their name to Shabab El Bourj SC in 2017.[1] They were promoted to the Lebanese Premier League for the first time under their new name in 2019, after gaining back to back promotions from the Fourth Division.[2][3] They became the first Lebanese team to achieve this feat.[3]
Following Shabab Bourj's failure to comply to FIFA's request for them to compensate former player Lorougnon Christ Remi, and rumours of a merger with Safa, the club withdrew from the league.[4] On 30 May 2022, the LFA announced that Shabab Bourj were fined £L12.5 million, were relegated to the Second Division, and that all of their matches in the championship round were voided.[5] Shabab Bourj eventually withdrew from the Second Division in 2022–23, and were relegated to the Third Division.[6]
Club rivalries
Shabab Bourj has rivalries with Bourj and Shabab Sahel, due to the fact that they are all based in the Dahieh area.[7]
