They competed in Division Honneur, and the Forconi Cup. Review The 1954–1955 season is considered one of the most successful seasons, as the team achieved one of its best results in the league since its promotion to the Division Honneur in 1947. This success came during the second season of coach Smaïl Khabatou at the head of the technical staff, where he continued his work in building a strong and competitive team. USM Blida finished the season in fifth place with 44 points, a remarkable achievement that reflected the club's stability and progress. Throughout the league campaign, the team played 22 matches, recording 7 victories, 8 draws, and 7 defeats. These results confirmed the solid level and consistency that the club had reached during that period. On an individual level, striker Abdelkader Mazouz stood out as the team's top scorer in the league with 7 goals. His performances were crucial to the team's positive results and he played a key role in the attacking line. In the North African Cup competition, USM Blida faced the Tunisian side Club Africain in a challenging match held at the Municipal Stadium in Algiers. Despite a strong performance, the team was eliminated after a narrow 3–2 defeat. The two goals for USM Blida in that match were scored by Maâmar Ousser and Abdelkader Mazouz. The 1954–1955 season remains a bright chapter, marked by technical stability under coach Smaïl Khabatou and by outstanding results that strengthened the club's reputation as one of the leading teams of that era.
