Wadi Degla Sporting Club (Arabic: نادي وادي دجلة الرياضي) is an Egyptian sports club known for its football team. The club is related to Wadi Degla Holding, a construction company established in 1994.[1]
In 2009–10, the club was promoted to the Egyptian Premier League for the first time in its history.
In 2009–10 Egyptian Second Division, Wadi Degla made history. The team defeated El-Sekka El-Hadid 3–1 in the last week of the competition to seal promotion to the highest level of football in Egypt, Egyptian Premier League, for the first time in its history.[2] [3] It took Wadi Degla only one season to gain promotion from the second division to the Premier League. This is a historical achievement that was only reached once before by Al-Mokawloon Al-Arab (Arab Contractors) in 1981.
