The football club currently competes in the Jordanian First Division League, the second tier of Jordanian football. It hosts a football club, as well as a volleyball club.[2][3][4]

History

[edit]

Al-Karmel participated in the 2009–10 Jordanian Pro League, which they got demoted down to the Jordanian First Division League after one season.[5]

On 7 May 2013, Al-Karmel appointed Iraqi Wathiq Naji as manager of the club, with the aim of Al-Karmel regaining promotion to the Jordanian Pro League.[6]

Throughout the summer of 2015, Al-Karmel established a partnership with Palestinian club Jenin SC, where they completed two separate week-long camps in Irbid.[7][8][9]

Al-Karmel had a notable run in the 2018–19 Jordan FA Cup, where they reached all the way to the semi-finals of the competition. They first defeated Sahab in the round of 32. They then defeated Al-Salt 4-2 on penalties.[10] They then defeated Jordanian Second Division League side Umm Al-Qutain 3-3 on away goals.[11] They finally ended their run after a 2-0 aggregate loss to eventual champions Al-Faisaly.

On 9 July 2020, Al-Karmel President Rakan Mahmoud was arrested in what was described as mysterious circumstances.[12]

On 11 September 2021, Al-Karmel appointed Abdul Rahman Suleiman as manager of the club, replacing the departing Mohamed Tohan during the 2021 Jordanian First Division League season[13]

On 20 March 2022, Rakan Mahmoud was re-elected as President of Al-Karmel SC, who is described as a well-known political, social and youth activist to the region.[14]

On 18 November 2023, Al-Karmel participated in the 2023 Jordanian Second Division League, where they clinched their spot back to the Jordanian First Division League, after defeating Deir Abi Saeed in the semi-finals.[15]
