    The Terwilliger algebra of an association scheme \(\mathcal A\) is the subalgebra of the complex matrix algebra, generated by the Bose-Mesner algebra of \(\mathcal A\) and its dual idempotents with respect to a point \(x\). \textit{E. Bannai} and \textit{A. Munemasa} [Kyushu J. Math. 49, No. 1, 93--102 (1995; Zbl 0839.05095)] determined the dimension of the Terwilliger algebra of abelian groups and dihedral groups, by showing that they are triply transitive (i.e. triply regular and dually triply regular). In this work, a generalization of their results to the group association scheme of semidirect products of the form \(C_n\rtimes C_2\), where \(C_m\) is a cyclic group of order \(m\ge 2\) is given. In particular, the complete characterization of the Wedderburn components of the Terwilliger algebra of those groups is given.
