They participated in the first ever national cup tournament held in Iraq: the 1948–49 Iraq FA Cup.[1] They also won seven Iraq Central FA League titles in a row (the top-tier league for teams from Baghdad and its neighbouring cities between 1948 and 1973), making them the most successful team in the tournament's history.[2]
