Manama Club (Arabic: المنامة) is a Bahraini football club based in Manama. They play in the top division in Bahraini football.
From the inception of the Bahrain league in 1957 till the start of 90s, Manama did not make an important impact on the national stage. While rivals Al Ahli were winning three national titles, Manama were struggling to maintain their status among the elite.
Last season saw Manama finally reward the patience of their long suffering fans by clinching automatic promotion. And they did it in style by winning all but one of their 14 games. They also reached the quarterfinals of the FA Cup where they lost by the odd goal in three to Al Shabab. Manama finally had something to shout about.
