F.C. Bnei M.M.B.E. HaGolan VeHaGalil, also known as Bnei HaGolan VeHaGalil (lit.: sons of the Golan and the Galilee), is an Israeli football club, playing in Liga Gimel. The club was established in 2015 by Druze living in the Israeli-occupied portion of the Golan Heights, in the villages of Mas'ade, Majdal Shams, Buq'ata and Ein Qiniyye, which initials are incorporated in the club's name.[1]
History
The club was founded in 2015, the first senior team from the Golan Heights Druze to join the Israeli football league system,[2] and joined Liga Gimel, and registered to play in the Upper Galilee division. The club dominated the division for most of the season[3] in a tight race with F.C. Julis,[4] but a late rally from F.C. Julis had the club finishing 2nd, three points short of promotion to Liga Bet.[5]
