The LNFP was officially established in 2015 by the FRMF to oversee the organization and development of professional football in Morocco, including the Botola Pro. This reform aimed to enhance the management of the domestic league and take advantage of growing commercial and broadcasting opportunities. Moroccan sports channel Arryadia holds the rights to broadcast Botola Pro matches, contributing to the league's media presence and revenue generation.

::figure[src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cd/2013_البطولة_المغربية_الإحترافية_.png" caption="Botola Pro Trophy"] ::

AS FAR dominated the championship for four consecutive seasons despite the competition being played by strong teams, namely MAS Fes and KAC Marrakech, where the Askari Club was able to enter history as the first club to achieve four consecutive titles in the years (1961–1964). Then in the 1964–1965 season, MAS Fes won its first title, then Wydad AC won the league title in the 1965–1966 season, which is the beginning of the competition between Raja CA and Wydad AC in the tournament, where the derby was repeated due to the public entering the stadium which ended with Raja winning 2–1; But when it was replayed, it ended in a 0–0 draw, and thus Wydad AC won the championship by one point over Raja CA.

New teams were able to crown the championship title during this period, including RS Settat, RAC Casablanca, Raja Beni Mellal, MC Oujda, SCC Mohammédia, and others that had previously been crowned as Wydad, who won the league for three consecutive seasons. Kenitra was able to obtain the championship in the 1973–1972 season in a dramatic way in a season known as the famous case of the Car Dial Fez, where it noticed the survival of Wydad from going down to the second national division due to the cancellation of the interview of MAS Fes with Wydad AC in the last round due to a malfunction in the bus that was carrying the players of Maghreb Fez, which automated a loss for fez and Wydad got 4 points, Kénitra AC won the league.

MAS Fes was able to add two more titles to its treasury at this stage. Kénitra AC managed to win two successive titles, while CO Casablanca won their first title, and the competition was strong between Wydad AC and the AS FAR, where the Military Club won three titles, bringing the total of its titles to 10 to hang its first star, and then Wydad was able to win four titles, bringing its total titles to 15.
