The 2015–16 season was Al Shorta's 42nd season in the Iraqi Premier League, having featured in all 42 editions of the competition. Al Shorta participated in the Iraqi Premier League, while they withdrew from the Iraq FA Cup and did not enter the AFC Cup.
They entered this season having finished in third place in the league in the 2014–15 season,http://alshorta.webs.com/latestnews.htm Al Shorta SC Website but this season they only managed to finish in seventh place in the league after failing to win any of their last six games. The managerial instability at the club contributed to their disappointing campaign as they had four different managers all in the same season.
