Hapoel Givatayim () was an Israeli football club based in Givatayim. The club played three seasons in Liga Alef, then the second tier of Israeli football league system.
The club was founded in 1945 and participated at the 1946 Palestine Cup, where they lost 1âÂÂ6 on aggregate to Hapoel Tel Aviv, losing 0âÂÂ6 in the first leg and inflicting a shock defeat on their opponents, 1âÂÂ0 in the second leg. Hapoel Givatayim were due to play in 1946âÂÂ47 Liga Bet, the last second-tier season of league football in the British Mandate of Palestine prior to the Israeli Declaration of Independence. However, Givatayim withdrew from the league and folded.
The club was re-established in 1961 as the reserve team of Hapoel Ramat Gan, which played home matches at HaMakhtesh Stadium, located in Givatayim.
In their first season following re-establishment, Givatayim won Liga Gimel Tel Aviv division and promoted to Liga Bet. In the following season, Givatayim finished fourth in Liga Bet South A division and promoted to Liga Alef. Thus, Hapoel Givatayim made two successive promotions since its re-establishment. In the 1963âÂÂ64 season, Givatayim reached their best placing ever, which was fourth in Liga Alef South division. After seventh-place finish in the following season, Givatayim finished bottom in 1965âÂÂ66 and dropped back to Liga Bet. The club suffered further relegation in the double season of 1966âÂÂ68, this time to Liga Gimel, after finished bottom of Liga Bet South A division with only five points. Givatayim returned to Liga Bet in the 1972âÂÂ73 season and remained five seasons in that league, until 1976âÂÂ77 (when Liga Bet became the fourth tier of Israeli football), in which the club was eventually folded during the season.
