==History==
===Early years===
The team started in 1949, when [[Zalman Caspi]] was a footballer at [[Hapoel Ramat Gan Givatayim F.C.|Hapoel Ramat Gan]]. He set up a department to find young talents in the transit camps in the Be'er Sheva area, in order to eventually establish a soccer team. In April 1950, the group was established in the framework of the Hapoel Center.

Hapoel Be'er Sheva played for the first time on 1 May 1950 and won 5–4 [[Hapoel Mefalsim F.C.|Hapoel Mefalsim]], a team made up of players who immigrated to Israel from South America. The goals were scored by [[Marcus Abergil]] (duo), [[Henry Lev]] (duo) and [[Baruch Cohen]]. At that time, the team participated in friendly matches against teams from the two senior leagues, and Derby was held against [[Maccabi Be'er Sheva F.C.|Maccabi Be'er Sheva]], which ended with a 3–3 draw.

In 1952, the club official activity was suspended after the Association decided that the geographical distance would not allow its participation, but in 1954 the group was re-registered in the [[1954–55 Liga Gimel|1954–55]] league in the Negev region of [[Liga Gimel]], the third league at the time. Be'er Sheva finished the season in the seventh and final place in the Negev region with one win from 12 games, 22 mandatory goals and only 5 goals.

The [[1955–56 Liga Gimel|1955–56]] season, under the guidance of coach [[Yosef Azran (Coach)|Yosef Azran]], finished first in the Southern District of [[Liga Gimel]], the fourth league at the time. In the qualifying games for relegation to [[Liga Bet]], Be'er Sheva competed against [[Hapoel Lod F.C.|Hapoel Lod]], [[Hapoel Ramla F.C.|Hapoel Ramla]] and [[Hapoel Holon F.C.|Hapoel Holon]], and in the decisive game in [[Rehovot]] she beat [[Hapoel Jaffa F.C.|Hapoel Jaffa]] 0–5 and qualified for the second division. In the [[1956–57 Liga Bet|1956–57]] season, the team finished seventh in the league in the Southern District.

In the [[1957–58 Liga Bet|1957–58]] season, [[Lonia Dvorin]] replaced Yosef Azran at the coaching post. In the same season, the Football Association stopped all the leagues under the first division towards their end, with Be'er Sheva in second place leading to the first round of tests, following suspicions of bribes and biases, all of which have been frozen for the season. At the end of the season the team reached the final of the "Football Association Cup", but lost 7–1 to [[Hapoel Tiberias F.C.|Hapoel Tiberias]].

In the [[1958–59 Liga Bet|1958–59]] season the team finished second in the league in the Southern District and qualified for the first stage of the tests.

Former Israeli national team coach [[Jack Gibbons (Coach)|Jack Gibbons]] took his place and led the team to [[Liga Alef]] after winning the decisive game against [[Hapoel Netanya F.C.|Hapoel Netanya]] in [[Rehovot]] 2–1.

===1960s===
In the [[1959–60 Liga Alef|1959–60]] season, Hapoel Be'er Sheva moved to play on a lawn in the [[Vasermil Stadium|municipal stadium in Be'er Sheva]]. This season, [[Yechiel Mor]], 27-year-old from [[Hapoel Ramat Gan Givatayim F.C.|Hapoel Ramat Gan]], joined the team and began to serve as [[player-coach]]. Under his guidance, the team finished ninth in [[Liga Alef]]. In preparation for the [[1960–61 Liga Alef|1960–61]] Beer Sheva played their first game against an international team when she hosted Cyprus [[Anorthosis Famagusta FC|Anorthosis Famagusta]] for a friendly game, which ended in a 1–2 loss. This season they finished ninth again.

In the [[1961–62 Liga Alef|1961–62]] season, [[Rober Eryol]] was appointed coach of the team, but after five matches Be'er Sheva remained without points, and the club decided to fire Eryol and rehire coach Yechiel Mor back. In the same season, the team reached the semi-finals of the [[State Cup]] for the first time in history, in the [[Liga Alef]], after beating [[Hapoel Ramla F.C.|Hapoel Ramla]] 2–1 in the eighth round. In the quarterfinals, [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]] won 3–1 and was eliminated after a loss 3–0 to [[Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C.|Maccabi Tel Aviv]] in the semi-finals.

Be'er Sheva struggled with [[Beitar Tel Aviv F.C.|Beitar Tel Aviv]] to advance to the national league in the Southern District, and at the end of the season [[Beitar Tel Aviv F.C.|Beitar Tel Aviv]] finished first with a better goal differential.

In the [[1964–65 Liga Alef|1964–65]] season, under the guidance of [[Yugoslavia|Yugoslav]] coach [[Slavko Milošević]], the team competed for the national league against [[Beitar Ramla F.C.|Beitar Ramla]] and [[Beitar Jerusalem F.C.|Beitar Jerusalem]], and finally finished first in the [[Liga Alef]] South league, with a gap of nine points from second place, and qualified for the national league for the first time in its history. In addition, the team reached the quarterfinals of the [[State Cup]] after defeating [[Hapoel Haifa F.C.|Hapoel Haifa]] from the [[Liga Leumit]]. In the quarterfinals they lost 2–4 to [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]] after an extension. During the season of promotion, [[Eliyahu Offer]], [[midfielder]]-[[Forward (association football)|striker]] [[Abraham Nom]]a and purchasing player [[Haim Cohen (footballer)|Haim Cohen]], who was the team top scorer with 20 goals this season, were conspicuous in the season.

In the [[1965–66 Liga Leumit|1965–66]] season, [[Yugoslavia|Yugoslav]] [[Selvole Stanković]] was named coach of the team and was joined by midfielder [[Yitzhak Gozlan]], who came from [[Hapoel Ofakim F.C.|Hapoel Ofakim]]. This season, Be'er Sheva promised to stay only in the last round, when she beat [[Maccabi Netanya F.C.|Maccabi Netanya]] 4–0 and finished 13th in the league.

In the summer of 1966, [[Yehiel Mor]] was again appointed coach of the team, and the offensive midfielder [[Meir Barad]] was joined from the Youth department to the first team. After 12 rounds the team led the league table and later joined the team of youth player [[Rafi Eliyahu]]. At the end of the double season [[1966–68 Liga Leumit|1966–68]], the team finished ninth in the table, and [[Abraham Noma]] won the Israeli Footballer of the Year award.

In the [[1968–69 Liga Leumit|1968–69]] season, [[Selvole Stepanović]] was appointed coach of the team, but already at the beginning of the season to they fell into last place in the league. As a result, the management summoned the former coach of the team, [[Lonia Dvorin]], to serve as a professional manager. After the 16th round, Stepanović was fired and replaced by [[Moshe Litbek]]. Under his guidance, the team managed to finish in 14th place and remain in the league. In addition, the team reached the quarterfinals of the [[State Cup]] after a 2–1 victory over [[Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv F.C.|Bnei Yehuda Tel Aviv]] in the eighth round. In the quarterfinals the team lost 2–3 to [[Maccabi Sha'arayim F.C.|Maccabi Sha'arayim]].

===The early 1970s===
In the [[1969–70 Liga Leumit|1969–70]] season, under the guidance of [[Avraham Menchel]], the team scored only a few goals, finishing with only 24 goals, and was soaking it up when it finished with 49 goals against.

The decision was made by the champions of [[Liga Alef]] North, [[Maccabi Jaffa F.C.|Maccabi Jaffa]], in the [[Israel Super Cup|Super Cup]] to the [[Liga Alef|second league]].

At the beginning of the [[1971–72 Liga Leumit|1971–72]] season, Be'er Sheva was in the top ranks of the [[Israeli Premier League|Liga Leumit]], but [[Meir Barad]] injury and a dispute between the club's management and [[Rafi Eliyahu]] led the team to the bottom of the league. The return of [[Meir Barad|Barad]] and [[Rafi Eliyahu|Eliyahu]] two months later did not change their luck, and the team finished 12th in the table with just 25 goals, with [[Meir Barad|Barad]] finishing the season as king of the team with 11 goals. In the same season, the team met with [[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]], one of the top three teams in England at the time, and won it 3–1.

Levkovich was the first coach to introduce the style of the attacking defenders in Israel, a style taken from [[Football in Germany|German football]]. Levkovich combined young players, among them 20-year-old [[Uri Benjamin]] as a right-wing defender and 18-year-old [[Jacob Cohen (footballer)|Jacob Cohen]] as a left-wing defender. The team was one of the young players in the league, and included only four players who had reached the age of 25.

In the [[1975–76 Liga Leumit|1975–76]] season, Be'er Sheva opened the league in a disappointing way when it finished twice in the first two rounds, but in the following rounds improved, and in the fifth round it was ranked first in this season in the first place in the table.

===The late 1970s===
In the [[1976–77 Liga Leumit|1976–77]] season, Be'er Sheva almost became the first champion team to go down in the league. Under the guidance of [[Eli Fuchs]], who returned to coaching the team, Be'er Sheva opened the season badly and fell to the bottom. As a result, after 16 rounds Fuchs resigned from the coaching team, and [[Eliyahu Offer]], who retired from regular activity as a player during the season and also served as Fuchs's assistant, was named coach. Two rounds to the end of the season the team met outside with [[Maccabi Haifa F.C.|Maccabi Haifa]] for a survival game, with only a goal difference separating the two teams in the table. Be'er Sheva won 1–0 and managed to stay in the league while Maccabi Haifa dropped to the second division. In addition, the team reached the quarterfinals of the Israeli Cup again after beating Maccabi Haifa 2–0 in the eighth-finals and was eliminated after losing 0–3 to [[Beitar Tel Aviv F.C.|Beitar Tel Aviv]].

In the [[1977–78 Liga Leumit|1977–78]] season, the team displayed a good offensive ability throughout the season, led by its top scorer [[Shalom Avitan]], with 12 goals and his deputy [[Victor Seroussi]], with 10 goals, but at the same time showed less defensive ability. Be'er Sheva finished the season in fifth place in the table with 43 goals, the highest in a single season in the history of the team in the first division until then (except for the double season of [[1966–68 Liga Leumit|1966–68]], which scored 71 goals).

In the [[1978–79 Liga Leumit|1978–79]] season, the team finished ninth. In addition, she reached the quarter-finals of the [[Israel State Cup|State Cup]] for the sixth time in her history, following a 2–1 win over [[Hapoel Kfar Saba F.C.|Hapoel Kfar Saba]] in the eighth-finals. In the quarterfinals she lost to [[Beitar Tel Aviv F.C.|Beitar Tel Aviv]] with a penalty kick.

===The 1980s===
Towards the [[1979–80 Liga Leumit|1979–80]] season, [[Amatzia Levkovich]] returned to coaching the team, and was joined by the young [[Efraim Davidi]] of [[Maccabi Be'er Sheva F.C.|Maccabi Be'er Sheva]]. The team did not open the season well, and then gave Levkovich a chance to play with other young players. The number of duty gates, 27, was the lowest since the season of the first championship under Levkovich ([[1974–75 Liga Leumit|1974–75]]), but the offense was deficient and the team rarely scored goals. The team finished in the tenth place in the table with only seven wins.

Towards the [[1980–81 Liga Leumit|1980–81]] season, [[Eliyahu Offer]] returned to the coach position and opened the season well. However, just as the team scored more goals, it was also a great hit, and finished the season in 11th place.

In preparation for the [[1981–82 Liga Leumit|1981–82]] season, the team appointed [[Shimon Shenhar]], and the team opened the season with four losses, two draws and a win, leading to 15th and last place in the league. From the eighth round onwards, the team achieved a series of 11 cycles without loss. At the end of the 18th round, the team ranked in fourth place in the table, which they managed to keep until the end of the season. Be'er Sheva showed a good attacking ability during the season, scoring 43 goals and equaling the record for one season. King of the team's gates was [[Shalom Avitan]] with 14 goals. In addition, the team reached their semi-finals in the history of the [[Israel State Cup|State Cup]], after beating [[Maccabi Netanya F.C.|Maccabi Netanya]] in the eighth round, 1–0, and in the quarterfinals they won 4–0 in Ramat Gan. In the semi-finals she met [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]] and lost 3 to 5 in the penalty kick after 2–2 at the end of the extension.

The fourth place in the league gave Be'er Sheva a ticket to the [[Lilian Cup]], a tournament that was played in the 1980s. In preparation for the [[1982–83 Liga Leumit|1982–83]] season, the team played in the tournament and won 3–1 against Maccabi Netanya. In this season, Be'er Sheva played a very good defensive ability and took only 23 duty gates, the lowest number of duty gates since the first season. Be'er Sheva finished third in the table, and the reigning king was again [[Shalom Avitan]] with 11 conquests.

In preparation for the [[1983–84 Liga Leumit|1983–84]] season, [[Eliyahu Offer]] returned to the position of coach. The team played again against [[Maccabi Netanya F.C.|Maccabi Netanya]] in the [[Lilian Cup]] final and lost 2–3. In the league, the team failed to maintain stability, rocking throughout the season between mid-table and bottom, and finally finished seventh in the table. In addition, she reached the finals of the Israeli Cup for the first time in her history, after winning 4–2 in the quarterfinals of [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]] in a penalty shootout after a replay, and in the semi-finals she defeated Maccabi Netanya. In the final, the team lost 2–3 [[Penalty kick (association football)|penalties]] to [[Hapoel Lod F.C.|Hapoel Lod]] after 0–0 at the end of the extension.

In preparation for the [[1984–85 Liga Leumit|1984–85]] season, [[Zvi Rosen]] was appointed coach of the team, who scored few goals and finished the season with the lowest number of conquests since the [[1976–77 Liga Leumit|1976–77]] season, and faced the danger of a drop to the relegation. Three seasons to the end of the season, with a lag of 5 points from where they remain in the league, Rosen was fired and replaced by former teammate [[Jackie Dekel]], who managed to keep the team in the top league.

In preparation for the [[1985–86 Liga Leumit|1985–86]] season, [[Nahum Stelmach]] was appointed coach, and his assistant was appointed former player of the team [[Alon Ben Dor]]. This season, the team reached their final [[Toto Cup]] for the first time in their history, after beating [[Maccabi Tel Aviv F.C.|Maccabi Tel Aviv]] 2–1 in the semi-finals. In the final she lost to [[Hapoel Petah Tikva F.C.|Hapoel Petah Tikva]] 1–2. In the league, the team barely scored and finished the season with 24 goals, but also scored a low 24 points, the lowest since the [[1969–70 Liga Leumit|1969–70]] season. Throughout the season the team wandered between the bottom and middle of the table, finally finishing eighth in the table.

In preparation for the [[1986–87 Liga Leumit|1986–87]] season, [[Nino Bargig]] was appointed coach of the team, which started the season with two losses and a draw. Bargig was dismissed and replaced by [[Dror Bar-Nur]]. Under his defense, the team improved the defense game and finished with only 19 goals, but continued to harden the game and scored only 20 goals. The team's number of goals and goals was the lowest in its history in the first division. Throughout the season, she struggled with the bottom, finishing her 11th in the table.

In preparation for the [[1987–88 Liga Leumit|1987–88]] season, the team appointed [[Nissim Bakhar]] as coach. During this season the team maintained a high defense capability and improved its offensive ability. The team finished third in the table and won the [[Lilian Cup]] for the third time since the tournament was established.

For the [[1988–89 Liga Leumit|1988–89]] season, the team won 1–0 against [[Hapoel Tel Aviv F.C.|Hapoel Tel Aviv]] in the [[Lilian Cup]] final. Later in the season, the team reached the final of the [[Toto Cup]] and won the [[Trophy|Cup]] for the first time in its history after a victory over [[Maccabi Netanya F.C.|Maccabi Netanya]]. In the [[Liga Leumit|league]], the team did not list, and in the 22nd round they broke up with coach Nissim Bakhar, when [[Shimon Shenhar]] came in for a second term as team coach. Be'er Sheva scored only 22 goals, 29 assists and finished fifth in the table.

===The 1990s===
In the [[1989–90 Liga Leumit|1989–90]] season was the first season in which foreign players were allowed to participate in the [[Liga Leumit|Israeli league]], and Be'er Sheva joined the Argentinian attackers [[Claudio Dykstra]] and [[Ricardo Cacchione]]. During the season, the team replaced four coaches, Shimon Shenhar, who finished in the fifth round, past players [[Haim Cohen (coach)|Haim Cohen]] and [[Alon Ben Dor]], and [[Eliyahu Offer]], who was appointed towards the end of the season in which the team finished ninth in the league.

On the other hand, the team also scored a great deal, ending the season with 40 goals, the highest number of goals since [[1981–82 Liga Leumit|1981–82]], and finished the season in tenth place in the table.

In the [[1992–93 Liga Leumit|1992–93]] season, [[Uri Malmilian]] and [[Hisham Zuabi]] joined the team. After five rounds [[Eliyahu Offer]] was fired and replaced by assistant coach [[Vico Haddad]]. Be'er Sheva showed a good offensive ability during the season, when Zuabi finished as deputy king of the league with 17 goals, and sets a record for conquering Be'er Sheva in the senior league. The entire team finished the season with 52 goals, the highest number of goals ever scored in one season in the top league, as well as their best ever goal difference in the top division, and fourth in the table.

In the [[1993–94 Liga Leumit|1993–94]] season, the team again broke the record for the season in the [[Liga Leumit|Premier League]] and scored 54 goals, and returned their best goal difference in the [[Liga Leumit|Premier League]].

==Youth department==
Hapoel "Hashlosha" Be'er Sheva, which represents the country's main southern football, and one of the largest youth departments in Israel.

During most of the club's years, the club enjoys a strong youth department. Until 1969 Hapoel Be'er Sheva had one youth team, and it even won the first Israeli Youth Championship this year. At the end of the championship season, another group, Hapoel "Hashlosha", was established in Be'er Sheva after three employees of the "Makhteshim" factory who died in a work accident. The "Hashlosha" coach was [[Chaim Sne]] and within a short time the "Hashlosha" became the senior youth group in the city. "Hashlosha" won the first Israeli youth championship in 1973–74. Until the end of the 1980s Hapoel "HaShlosha" Be'er Sheva was regularly ranked in the top ranks of the Youth Super League and even won four State Youth Championships. From the mid-1960s, Hapoel Be'er Sheva youth teams relied on the talents discovered in the municipal youth leagues, founded by [[Aharon Ben Yaakov]], who in their heyday numbered thousands of boys who played in hundreds of teams. As the group moved into private hands in the 1990s, the investment in the youth department declined and the youth group dropped to the re-election after a few years. Since 2007, when [[Alona Barkat]] has purchased the club, many funds have been invested to bring the youth departments back to the forefront, and in recent years the youth group has gradually returned to the top of the youth league.
