History

The club was established in 1999 under the name Maccabi Ironi Holon [2] and joined the league in its second season, finishing 11th. In 2002, after the collapse of Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Tel Aviv, the club signed several of their top players, allowing it to challenge for titles, eventually winning both league and cup. The club signed more top players after the collapse of Maccabi Haifa a year later, and went on to win all league titles and cups until 2009, after which the club remained at the top of Israeli women's football, and managed to win two cups, in 2009–10 and 2012–13, while finishing as runners-up three times in the league.
