Overview

After the withdrawal of Saïd Allik who decided not to run for a new term, Allik has expressed his desire to pass the torch, providing an opportunity for new faces to take the reins of the club, on September 18, 2024, Djabrouni Fouad a member of the Judo Section, was elected as the new president of the CSA/USMA. Djabrouni received 16 votes out of 24 voters, while the other candidate, Khebaz Hamid the treasurer received only 7 votes.^[1]^[2] The first phase of the Super Division played in a two-legged format, 26 rounds in total. At the end of this phase, the top eight teams in the standings will play the Play-offs, while the remaining six teams will play the Play-downs.^[4] The FABB also announced the renewal of the decision prohibiting foreign players from playing in the Super Division, the FABB which set the deadline for submitting the commitment file to September 30.^[4]

The first match of the new season was against CSC Gué de Constantine at home. USM Alger was behind in the first three quarters, and in the fourth and final quarter, USMA reduced the score to one point, which was not enough to receive its first defeat. On December 3, 2024, WO Boufarik star Lamouri Merahi joined USM Alger. On December 5, 2024, after leading USM Alger to return to the podium with two league and cup titles, coach Réda El Hachemi left for rival club MC Alger. On January 31, 2024, the Algerian Basketball Federation (FABB), announced the scheduling of the Basketball Super Cup match on February 11, 2025, at La Coupole d'Alger Arena between WO Boufarik, the Super Division champion, and USM Alger, the Algerian Cup champion.^[5] WO Boufarik beat USM Alger with a score of 70–59.^[6]

In Round 20, USM Alger traveled to Staoueli to face the Super Division leaders NB Staouéli in a crucial basketball game.
