Nicknamed "the Yellow Castle" (Arabic: القلعة الصفراء‎), Ahed have won one AFC Cup title, seven Premier League titles, six FA Cup titles, seven Super Cup titles, five Elite Cup titles, and one Federation Cup title. They earned their first league title in 2008. In a period stretching from 2008 to 2010, they went unbeaten for 44 consecutive games. In 2011, Ahed became the first team in Lebanon to accomplish both a domestic treble and quadruple after they won the league, the cup, the Super Cup and the Elite Cup in the same season. In 2019, Ahed became the first Lebanese side to win the AFC Cup, defeating North Korean side April 25 in the final.
