Beitar Avraham Be'er Sheva (Hebrew: בית"ר אברהם באר שבע) was an Israeli football club based in Beersheba.
The club was promoted to Liga Artzit (then the second tier) in 1998. In their first season at the second level they finished fourth. In the 2000-01 season the club finished third, missing out on promotion to the Israeli Premier League by a single point (they had a better goal difference than runners-up Maccabi Kiryat Gat). Although they finished fourth the following season, Beitar finished bottom of Liga Leumit (which had become the second division in 1999) in 2002-03, without winning an away match all season, and were due to be relegated to Liga Artzit. However, the club folded in the summer, with Hapoel Marmorek promoted from Liga Alef to take their place.
A few years later, a new club, MS Be'er Sheva, was formed from their ashes, which currently plays in Liga Bet.
The club's stadium was named for Michael Reisser, a Likud MK who died following a car accident in 1988.
