Maccabi Haifa Basketball Club (Hebrew: מכבי חיפה), is a professional Israeli basketball club that belongs to the Maccabi Haifa association. The team competes in the Israeli Basketball Premier League, the top tier of Israeli basketball. The club won their first championship in 2013, beating perennial champion Maccabi Tel Aviv in the final game.
History
Maccabi Haifa, known as "the Greens," is one of the oldest basketball teams in Israel, and is one of the original eight teams that formed the top division in 1953.[1][2][3] In 1971 and 1985, the club qualified for the State Cup finals losing to Maccabi Tel Aviv in both years.[2][4]
The club was relegated to the second division in 1993, and dropped into the third tier in 1995. They returned to the top tier, Ligat HaAl, in 1999. Despite their success, in 2000, Haifa mayor Amram Mitzna merged the club with Hapoel Haifa to form BC Haifa.[1]
Although the club qualified for the playoffs twice, they began to experience financial difficulties.[4] Upon relegation, the club folded and sold its rights to Bnei HaSharon. In 2004 Maccabi Haifa officials changed the name of the second team under its control, Maccabi Bat Galim, to Maccabi Haifa in an effort to restore the club's glory days.[5] The following season, the club was promoted to the northern division of the third league.
In July 2007, Maccabi Haifa was purchased by American businessman Jeffrey Rosen, who invested heavily in the club.[2][4] In 2007 they were promoted to Liga Leumit under the leadership of coach Tobi Slilat. After the club was promoted, Avi Ashkenazi (who had coached the team in 1995) was reappointed.
The Greens won their first-ever championship in franchise history in the 2012–13 season, defeating Maccabi Tel Aviv.[2][4][6]
In the 2018–19 season, Haifa won the Liga Leumit championship and was promoted back to the Premier League.

Between 2010 and 2012, the team played temporary at Ramot Itzhak Hall in Nesher, because the home arena Romema was renovated and its capacity was increased to 5,000 seats.
