Source-derived summary

Maccabi Holon (Hebrew: מכבי חולון) was an Israeli football club based in Holon. The club played five seasons in Liga Alef, then the second tier of Israeli football league system.

History

The Maccabi sport club in Holon was founded in 1942, and the football section was opened 1945, playing mostly in friendlies during its early years.

After the Israeli Declaration of Independence, the club joined Liga Gimel of the Israel Football Association for the 1954–55 season. At the end of the 1959–60 season, Maccabi were promoted to Liga Bet, the third tier of Israeli football at the time, after they finished at the top four of the Promotion play-offs for Liga Gimel clubs. In 1963–64, the club finished runners-up in Liga Bet South B division, and were promoted to Liga Alef for the first time in their history. In 1965–66, the club's second season at the second tier, they reached their best placing ever, which was eighth. In 1968–69, the club finished at the bottom of the South division and relegated back to Liga Bet. After four seasons in Liga Bet, Maccabi won the South A division in the 1972–73 season and made a return to Liga Alef. However, their second spell at Liga Alef lasted only one season, after they finished bottom of the South division in the 1973–74 season, and relegated to Liga Bet after lost all of their five matches in the Relegation play-offs.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “football club” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
