Ittihad Kalba is an Emirati club from the city of Kalba founded in 1972.
The club began their way in the UAE third tier. They enjoyed a meteoric rise breaking into the UAE First Division in the 1979/80 season for the first time ever. For the next three decades, Ittihad Kalba bounced up and down between the third and second divisions. However, the team’s historic campaign was the 2009/10 season when they won the second-division championship and got their first ever promotion to the UAE Pro-League. The club got off to a bad start as they found themselves in the relegation zone in the debut season in the top flight and slumped to the second tier once again. Ittihad Kalba finished the 2011/12 season as the UAE First Division champion and won back their ticket to the top flight. However, they got back the following season.
The team play their home matches at Ittihad Kalba Club Stadium which can hold 3,000 spectators.
