Al-Sadd Sports Club, commonly known as Al-Sadd SC, is a Qatari sports club based in the Al-Sadd district of the capital city Doha, Qatar, best known for its professional football team. The club competes in the Qatar Stars League, the highest level of the Qatari football league system, and is one of the country's most successful and popular teams. This unofficial Al-Sadd SC flag (Arabic: العلم غير الرسمي لنادي السد الرياضي) features the club's official emblem placed on a white background, a design derived from the team's traditional home kit and long-standing visual identity.

The circular Al-Sadd SC logo features a minimalist design introduced for the club's 50th anniversary in 2019, reflecting its modern commercial and sporting vision while retaining the round outline used across the club's historical emblems since its founding. In the upper-left portion of the emblem is a stylized letter "S", complemented by intertwined black-and-white circular lines. Some interpretations suggest that these lines form an abstract combination of the initial "S" from the club's name in both English and Arabic. The founding year "1969" is placed at the exact center of the emblem, honoring October 21, 1969, when the club was established by local students in Doha. Two gold stars positioned above the circle commemorate Al-Sadd's prestigious AFC Champions League victories in 1989 and 2011. The traditional black-and-white color scheme reinforces the club's established visual identity and is also associated with its famous nickname, "The Wolves".
