Ironi Nesher (Hebrew: עירוני נשר) is an Israeli football club based in Nesher. They are currently in Liga Alef North division, and play home matches at the Nesher Stadium.

History

The club was founded in 2009 as a successor to Hapoel Tel Hanan,[1][2] which was founded in 1954 and dissolved in 2009. Hapoel Tel Hanan was based in the Tel Hanan neighborhood of Nesher, and spent three seasons in the second tier of Israeli football, first in the 1975–76 season, where they were placed 14th in Liga Alef North division, and later in the new second tier at the time, Liga Artzit, where they were placed 13th in the 1981–82 season, and finished bottom in the following season and relegated to Liga Alef. their last season as Hapoel Tel Hanan was 2008–09, in the Samaria division of Liga Gimel, the lowest tier of Israeli football, where they finished in the eighth place.[3]

The new club, Ironi Nesher, started the following season at the same division in Liga Gimel. Although they finished in the third place,[4] they were eventually promoted to Liga Bet North B division, after one spot was vacated in this league, as Maccabi Beit She'an dissolved.[5]

In the 2013–14 season, the club won Liga Bet North B division,[6] and promoted to Liga Alef.
