History

Established in 1963,[1] at the start of the 1990s the club was playing in Liga Alef. At the end of the 1998-99 season they were relegated to Liga Bet North B. In 2005 They returned to Liga Alef.

After finishing as runners-up in Liga Alef North in 2006-07 under the management of Samir Issah, the following season the club won Liga Alef North and were promoted to Liga Artzit (then the third division). In the 2008-09 season they were relegated to Liga Alef and folded. However, four years later, in 2013, the club returned after Ahva Umm al-Fahm, which was founded two years earlier and promoted to Liga Bet in their first season, was renamed to Hapoel Umm al-Fahm.[2]
