Al-Shouleh Sports Club (Arabic: نادي الشعلة الرياضي) is a Syrian football club based in Daraa. The club was founded on 13 February 1968, following the merger of several clubs in the region.[1] They play their home games at the Municipal Stadium in the Panorama district in Daraa.[2]
In the 2022–23 season, the club withdrew from the Syrian League 1st Division; however, revoking relegation kept them in the division. In the 2023–24 season, Al-Shouleh secured promotion to the Syrian Premier League for the first time since 1997–98, following their victory in the play-offs against Khattab 5–3 on aggregate.[3]
