Shabab El Bourj

Founded in 1967 as Al Irshad SC, the club changed their name to Shabab El Bourj SC in 2017. 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. They became the first Lebanese team to achieve this feat.

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. 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. Shabab Bourj eventually withdrew from the Second Division in 2022–23, and were relegated to the Third Division. In 2023–24, they were relegated to the Fourth Division. They won the Fourth Division Mount Lebanon title during the 2025–26 season, and were promoted to the Third Division via play-offs.
