The best club in Saudi Arabia and the leader of six Asian championships
Al-Hilal has been founded in 1377 A.H in the name of 'El-Olympy' and continued under that name for almost two months, until it has been changed to Al-Hilal club
The name of Al-Hilal was given after the match attended by the late king Saud between 'El-Olympy' and Al-Kokab. The late king asked, "who gave this name?" They replied "Bin Said". Then he ordered to replace the name of El-Olympy with one of those three names (Al-Yamama- Al-Wehda- Al-Helal)
Thus, Al-Sheikh Abdul Rahman Bin Said chose the name of Al-Hilal and it was approved in 1378 A.H
