Sika Club Beirut


Sika Club Beirut, also known as D.H.P. in reference to the Damascus–Hama and Extensions Railway in Lebanon, was a Lebanese multi-sports club based in the Forn El Chebbak district of Beirut. The club used to practice football, basketball, volleyball, table tennis and swimming. Sika won the Lebanese Premier League three times: in 1936, 1939 and 1941.
In 1935, Sika played at the inaugural game of the Beirut Municipal Stadium with players such as Camille Cordahi and Joseph Nalbandian. Five Sika players were present in Lebanon's lineup during their first international match against Mandatory Palestine in 1940: Yeguiché, Sacre, Barbir, Nercesse and Cordahi.
Following the disestablishment of the Lebanese railroad, the club also followed and folded.
