Al Hilal Sports Club (Arabic: نادي الهلال), known as Al Hilal SC or simply Al Hilal, is a Sudanese professional football club based in Omdurman that competes in the Sudan Premier League. The club is set to compete in the Rwanda Premier League, the top-flight of football in Rwanda, due to the ongoing Sudanese civil war.

The name Hilāl is derived from the Arabic word for "crescent".^{[citation needed]}

The club's motto, "Allah – Al-Watan – Al-Hilal," translates to "God – The Nation – Al-Hilal" in English.^{[citation needed]}

Al-Hilal's home ground, the iconic Al-Hilal Stadium, is fondly nicknamed "The Blue Jewel." The stadium was officially inaugurated in January 2018 after significant renovations. What sets Al-Hilal apart from many other prominent African football giants is that their stadium was constructed entirely with the club's own private funding.

Al Hilal has built fierce continental rivalries with powerhouse clubs like Al Ahly, TP Mazembe, ES Tunis. Matches against Al Ahly are notoriously heated, often marred by tension, controversy, and even clashes between Egyptian and Sudanese supporters. However, in recent times, Al Hilal and Al Ahly's management have taken steps toward reconciliation, working to mend tensions and foster better relations; a testament to the intense history and impact of their fierce rivalry. Meanwhile, battles with ES Tunis and TP Mazembe are defined by relentless intensity and high stakes, with a fiercely contested head-to-head record that amplifies the rivalry's fire.
