History

The club was established in 2013 as a revival of a defunct club, Hapoel Hurfeish, which operated until 2003,[1] and in its best played in Liga Alef.[2][3] The new club was placed in the Upper Galilee division of Liga Gimel, and finished 11th in its first season in the league, and 6th in its second season.[4] In the cup, the club's best achievement is the fourth round, which doubles as the league cup final, where they lost in 2014–15 to Maccabi Nahf 1–5.[5]

Home ground

The club plays his home matches in the nearby village of Peki'in, as the old football stadium in the village, which was built in 1978, deemed unfit.[6] Work on the renovation of the stadium began in 2013,[7] but work was halted in early 2014 as the budget ran out, due to inadequate planning.[8][9]
