The 1954–55 Hapoel Balfouria season was the club's 13th season since its establishment, in 1906, and 7th since the establishment of the State of Israel. This was the club's second and last season in the top division.
During the season, the club competed in Liga Alef (top division) and the State Cup.
Review and events
[edit]- Before the beginning of the season, the club merged with Hapoel Afula.[1] The club kept the name Hapoel Balfouria, although it was also called Hapoel Balfouria/Afula.[2]
- As the club finished bottom at the end of the previous season, the club was initially placed in Liga Bet, and started the season in this division on 8 January 1955.[3] However, as the IFA reprieved the club from relegation as part of the settlement reached to eliminate the dispute that interrupted IFA activities,[4][5] the club was returned to Liga Alef, and began the season anew in Liga Alef on 5 February 1955.
