The story began in 1945 when a group of Beirut residents came together to establish a sports club that would unite the city's youth. However, they never imagined that this club would become the largest and most prestigious in Lebanon, with a popularity that transcends sects. The club has achieved great success, from winning the Lebanese league to capturing the Lebanon Cup, the Elite Cup, the Super Cup, the Arab Tripoli Tournament, the Arab Clubs Championship, the Arab Cups, the AFC Cup, and more.
The latest achievement was recorded just days ago, with the club securing a new victory by winning the Lebanese league title against its traditional rival, Al-Ansar Club. Celebrations erupted across various regions, especially in Beirut, to commemorate this significant victory. The club's president, Mazen Al-Za'ani, stated, "The public celebration witnessed in the capital on the occasion of Al-Najma winning the title reflects the public support for local sports, as they express their affiliation with this historic club, demonstrating its symbolic importance as one of Lebanon's major and popular pillars."
In a related note, the president of Al-Najma had posted a thank-you message on his Facebook page to the website "Wardna" and sports reporter Ibrahim Wahbi. Al-Za'ani remarked, "Lebanese football is impossible to thrive without Al-Najma Club; it is the heart of the game. Everyone agrees that you are the heartbeat of the club and its main supporter, and what you are doing confirms to everyone that the club will remain at the forefront and is in good shape."
