Raja Club Athletic, widely known as Raja Casablanca, Raja CA, or simply Raja, is a Moroccan professional football club based in Casablanca, Morocco. The team competes in Botola Pro, the top tier of Moroccan football, and is one of the most successful and popular clubs in Africa. This unofficial Raja CA fan flag (Arabic: علم مشجعي الرجاء الرياضي غير الرسمي, French: drapeau non officiel des supporters du Raja CA) features the club's official emblem centered on a green background derived directly from the logo and the club's iconic identity.
The club's emblem is designed around a white circular crest dominated by green elements symbolizing the club's heritage and aspirations. At the center stands a stylized green eagle with its wings spread wide, perched on top of a green-and-white football. The eagle serves as the club's primary symbol and represents strength, prestige, pride, and a fighting spirit, reflecting the ideals of Raja's nationalist founders during the French protectorate period. Surrounding the eagle, the club's name appears in green lettering, written in Arabic at the top and in Latin script at the bottom. Passing vertically behind the circular emblem is a green stripe topped with a large gold five-pointed star, added in 2011 to commemorate the club's tenth Moroccan league title. At the lower end of the stripe are three smaller gold stars symbolizing Raja's CAF Champions League triumphs. The green and white color scheme also carries strong meaning: green symbolizes hope, joy, and Moroccan identity, while white refers to Casablanca, famously known as the "White City." The word "Raja" itself means "hope" in Arabic, representing the dreams and ambitions of the working-class community that founded the club in 1949. Altogether, the emblem combines sporting success, cultural symbolism, and historical identity into one of the most recognizable crests in African football.
