1950–51 Iraq FA Baghdad First Division
The 1950–51 Iraq FA Baghdad First Division was the third season of the Iraq Central FA League (the top division of football in Baghdad and its neighbouring cities from 1948 to 1973). Teams in the region were split into three divisions rather than two for the first time. The First Division started on 8 December 1950, and consisted of five teams. After the completion of the regular season, a final stage was supposed to be held to determine the champion. However, the final stage was abandoned due to scheduling issues. Having topped the table in the regular season, Al-Haris Al-Maliki were considered to be the winners, although no trophy ceremony was held. After the failure to complete the finals, a new committee was formed by the Iraq Central Football Association to manage future competitions.

Baghdad
Baghdad (; ar, بَغْدَاد , ) is the capital of Iraq and the second-largest city in the Arab world after Cairo. It is located on the Tigris near the ruins of the ancient city of Babylon and the Sassanid Persian capital of Ctesiphon. In 762 CE, Baghdad was chosen as the capital of the Abbasid Caliphate, and became its most notable major development project. Within a short time, the city evolved into a significant cultural, commercial, and intellectual center of the Muslim world. This, in addition to housing several key academic institutions, including the House of Wisdom, as well as a multiethnic and multi-religious environment, garnered it a worldwide reputation as the "Center of Learning". Baghdad was the largest city in the world for much of the Abbasid era during the Islamic Golden Age, peaking at a population of more than a million. The city was largely destroyed at the hands of the Mongol Empire in 1258, resulting in a decline that would linger through many c ...

Aram Karam
Aram Karam (; born 1926) was one of the first great Iraqi footballers, who earned a reputation for scoring goals from apparently impossible long-range situations. He was an ethnic Assyrian and Christian. He was a son of a Levy soldier from Habbaniya. Aram was a striker capable of having the ball in the back of the net within a blink of an eye. After playing for various teams on RAF Hinaidi in Baghdad from 1936 in his youth, he joined Arsenal Sports Club Habbaniya in 1943 and later played for the C.C. Team and founded RAF Levy Civilian of Habbaniya. In 1951, Aram was one of 16 players to be selected to play for Iraq’s first ever national team. He missed Iraq’s first international game against Turkey in Izmir on 6 May, which ended 7-0 to the hosts, but competed in the second game six days later against Ankara Select. Aram proved to be a valuable player on the day as he scored Iraq’s first goal and ended the game with a hat-trick but was unable to prevent a 7-5 defeat. The ne ...
