Mouloudia Club of Oujda (Arabic: مولودية وجدة), commonly abbreviated to MC Oudja, is a Moroccan football club based in Oujda. Mouloudia, which closely translates to "birth" in Arabic, was named after the coincidence of the day of its creation: on March 16, 1946 (12 second spring of 1365 Hjeria) with the anniversary of the birth of Muhammad.

Businessman Mohamed Houar became president of the club in 2017, and his investment led to a 2017–18 Botola 2 title followed by strong performances in the Botola the following seasons. However, the club faced a crisis in 2021 when Houar announced he was leaving the club, with players and staff striking over unpaid wages.^[1]

Ziani Madani was elected new president of the Mouloudia Club d'Oujda (MCO) during a general meeting held Thursday 7 March 2024 in Oujda at the headquarters of the Sports Leagues of the Oriental region.^[2]
