Al-Nasr Sports, Cultural, and Social Club (Arabic: نادي النصر الرياضي و الثقافي و الاجتماعي; also known by just Al-Nasr, and also locally as Al-Malik, or "The King") is an Omani sports club based in Salalah. It is currently playing in the Omani League, top division of Oman Football Association. The club is one of the most successful football clubs in the Sultanate, along with rivals and neighbor's Dhofar. They have never been relegated to second division since the establishment of the club. Also Al-Nasr is famous for producing some of the greatest and most successful Omani footballers, such as Ali Al-Habsi, Hashim Saleh, and Fawzi Bashir.
In 1986 Al-Nasr competed in the Gulf Club Champions Cup, and finished with third place.[1]
Being a multisport club
Although being mainly known for their football, Al-Nasr like many other clubs in Oman, have not only football in their list, but also hockey, volleyball, handball, basketball, badminton, and squash. Aside from all the sports listed, Al-Nasr (like most clubs in Oman) also has a youth football team competing in the Omani youth league.
History [1]
Al-Nasr started off plqying in the Al-Haffa district of Salalah organizing specific meetings to play beach soccer. This eventually evolved into something very large. Finally in 1970 the registering of the club took place. As football was their main sport, Al-Nasr shifted to playing on grass fields in order to become a professional club.
Club name, logo, and colors
"Al-Nasr", literally translates to The victory.[2] Such a name quite well suites a sports club, so a club named "Al-Nasr" is common to find in the Middle East, and not exclusive to Oman. Some clubs with the same name can be found in Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., Libya, Kuwait, and Bahrain. Often these clubs can get confused with one another, therefore it is very common to find the name of the club (Al-Nasr) followed by the name of the city of which the club is located (Al-Nasr Riyadh for instance, or Al-Nasr Dubai). Another way to differentiate the clubs is by having the name of the country in which the club resides in following the club name (Al-Nasr Al-Omani, or Al-Nasr Al-Libee, etc.).
Al-Nasr's logo has been recreated and adapted a few times. The most recent logo (as shown on this page) was created during the late 1980s or early 1990s, giving the club a more attractive logo, opposed to the older, duller-looking one. Although bearing quite a difference, the influence of the older-logo is still seen when compared to the newer version. Also note that the only scripture of the logo is only written in Arabic, a sign of being an older sports club/logo compared to other Omani clubs which usually feature English scripture. Currently Jeep is featured on the team's shirt.
Al-Nasr have been known since establishment to wear a full blue kit (usually a darker shade of blue) with white trim, or a blue jersey with white shorts, distincting itself from neighbors, Al-Ittihad (green kit), and Dhofar (red kit).
