## Manager

Swiss manager Alain Geiger began the season as the manager, continuing in his position from the previous season, after leading the team to an impressive record over the summer in the group stage of the 2010 CAF Champions League with 4 wins and 2 draws. However, after losing in the semi-finals of the Champions League to TP Mazembe of DR Congo and a string of bad results in the league, he resigned from his position on December 13, 2010, with JS Kabylie sitting in 8th position in the standings. On December 22, 2010, Rachid Belhout was appointed manager of the team.
