History

Founded in 1949, the club originally held the name Sport Staouéli, then Djamia Riyadiah Baladiyat Staouéli (DRBS) in 1964, and eventually NB Staouéli since 2008. NB Staouéli won its first Algerian Cup title in 1999 against WA Boufarik (71-58) and the second in 2000 against MC Alger (82-81). On the other hand, NBS failed in 1973 against Darak El-Watani (65-52) and in 1993 against MCA (70-68).[1] On April 14, 2007, DRB Staouéli won the league title for the first time in its history. Six teams competed in the playoffs, after they won four matches including the deciding match was held in Staoueli Hall against the defending champion MC Alger. The latter left the hall in the sixth minute of the second quarter, when the score was 28 to 21 in favor of DRB Staouéli, the climate was very tense. Referring to the regulations, the technical commission chaired by international referee Chachoua Noureddine, took the decision to inflict a lost match by penalty on MC Alger. NB Staouéli's coach Ahmed Loubachria stated “We are disappointed by the conduct of the MCA. It is unworthy of his rank. Leaving the court is not part of basketball. This action tarnished the image of the ball in the basket. I congratulate my players for their performance”.[2] Two weeks later, DRB Staouéli won another title by winning the Algerian Cup against WA Boufarik, achieving the league and cup double for the first time.[3]

After losing the league title twice in a row against GS Pétroliers, before the Super Division was suspended for two seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria. NB Staouéli was crowned Algerian Super Division champion for the 2021–22 season by winning over WO Boufarik with a score of 64 to 59, during the last day of the Super-Division playoff tournament. This is the second championship title for the city of Staouéli after that won in 2007 under the name of DRB Staouéli. Undefeated during this playoffs, Yacine Ait-Kaci's men won during the first two days, respectively, ahead of CSC Djasr Kasentina (58-42) and MC Alger (81-74).[4]
