The club started at Liga Gimel, the third tier of Israeli football at the time. After two successive runners-up finish, Maccabi Shmuel won the Middle division in the 1954–55 season and promoted to Liga Bet, which became the new third tier, following restructuring of the Israeli football league system. After eight successive seasons playing at the third tier, Maccabi Shmuel finished third in Liga Bet South A division at the 1962–63 season and promoted to Liga Alef. However, the club's spell in Liga Alef lasted only one season, as they finished second bottom at the South division in the 1963–64 season, winning only four games, and relegated back to Liga Bet. The club played five more seasons in Liga Bet, until 1969–70, in which the club was eventually folded before the end of the season,[1] Following which the club was merged with Maccabi Montefiore, that took Maccabi Shmuel's place in Liga Gimel under the name Maccabi Shmuel Montifiore.[2]
