History Being one of the founders of Raja CA, Mohamed Naoui was player-manager between 1949 and 1954, and is to date the only one to have held this position. The first coach was Abdelkader Jalal who led Raja between 1951 and 1954. In September 1956, Kacem Kacemi qualified with the team to the first edition of Botola, after three victories in the play-offs. Raja was the first team to do so since their qualifying match was played at 8:30 am on 7 October 1956.

The club's longest-serving manager was Père Jégo, he managed the team three times during 11 years (1957–1965, 1965-1967 and 1968–1969). The most successful manager of the club's history is Oscar Fulloné with six trophies, five won between 1998 and 2000, and one between in 2006.

Père Jégo, Mohamed Tibari, Alexandru Moldovan, M'hamed Fakhir and José Romão are the only ones to have coached the team during three spells or more (excluding temporary spells). Mohamed Tibari gained Raja's first trophy in 1974, while Fernando Cabrita earned their first Botola in 1988. Raja then won its first Champions League with Rabah Saâdane in 1989, his second with Vahid Halilhodžić in 1997 and secured his third star with Oscar Fullone in 1999.
