Hakoah Tel Aviv was an Israeli football club based in Tel Aviv. In 1959 it merged with Maccabi Ramat Gan to form Hakoah Maccabi Ramat Gan.
History
The club was founded in 1938 by a group of former Hakoah Vienna players who had immigrated to Palestine from Austria.
In the first post-indepdence season, the club were played in the Tel Aviv Division of Liga Meuhedet. The following season, 1951-52 (there was no league football in the 1950-51 season) they were placed in the South Division of Liga Bet, finishing fourth. In 1954-55 they missed out on the league title by a point, finishing as runners-up to Maccabi Jaffa, who were promoted to the top division after play-offs. The following season Hakoah played Maccabi Jaffa in a promotion/relegation match, with Jaffa winning 4-1 on aggregate. The season after they also failed in the promotion/relegation play-offs.
At the end of the 1958-59 season, in which they finished third, the club merged with Maccabi Ramat Gan to form a new club, Hakoah Maccabi Ramat Gan. The new club played at Maccabi's Gali Gil stadium in Ramat Gan.
