History

The club was among the first to be established in Israel, when the IFA set up the women's league.[2] and is the only club to play in the 1st league since its beginning.

In its 24 seasons in the Israeli women's football league, the club has won eight championships and finished seven times as runners-up. By winning the league, the club qualified to the UEFA Women's Champions League, first appearing in 2010–11. In eight attempts, the club has qualified once from the qualifying round, in 2011–12, eventually losing to Torres Calcio Femminile in the Round of 32.

In the Israeli Women's Cup, the club has appeared in eleven finals, losing in its first seven, including in six straight finals between 2004 and 2009. The club finally won its first cup in 2011 and added two more wins in 2012 and 2014.
