History

edit

Moshav Mishmar HaShiv'a was established shortly after the end of the 1948 Arab–Israeli War, in 1949. A year later, the football club was established, and started – as football league was suspended, due to disagreements between the Maccabi and Hapoel factions in the IFA – playing friendlies against neighboring teams. During the 1950–51 season, the club competed in the Hapoel-only competition, the 30 Years to the Histadrut Shield, in the South division of the second tier, and finished 10th.[1]

The following season, the club was placed in Liga Gimel. The club won its division and was promoted to Liga Bet. However, the club finished bottom[2] and folded after the end of the season.
