Team changes

Promotion and relegation

League Promoted to League Relegated from League
To/from Liga Bet
  • To replace the folded Hapoel F.C. Karmiel Safed, Tzeirei Tamra was promoted from Liga Gimel, as the best second-placed team in the northern divisions.
  • In December 2016, the IFA was ordered to demote Maccabi Umm al-Fahm to Liga Gimel by FIFA due to an unpaid debt. The club, which finished 11th in North B division was demoted at the end of the season and was replaced initially by Maccabi Ironi Tamra, the second best second-placed team in the northern divisions of Liga Gimel. However, an appeal was lodged by Beitar Pardes Hanna, which was the best second-placed team in the Liga Gimel division which promote to North B division, claiming that only teams from the Jezre'el and Samaria division should be considered for promotion as replacement to Maccabi Umm al-Fahm. The IFA Supreme Court accepted the appeal and Promoted Beitar Pardes Hanna to Liga Bet.

Format changes

  • The IFA introduced promotion/relegations playoffs between Liga Bet and Liga Gimel. As a result, The two clubs placed 2nd and 3rd in each Liga Gimel division will qualify for the promotion play-offs. In each pair of divisions (Upper Galilee and Lower Galilee, Jezreel and Samaria, Sharon and Tel Aviv and Central and South) The 2nd placed club will host the 3rd placed club in each division, followed by a match between the two winners to decide the relegation/promotion match against the losing team from the Liga Bet relegation play-offs for a spot in Liga Bet.
  • To clarify the order of promotion for filling vacant places in Liga Bet, the IFA announced that the first club to be promoted if such vacancy would be created, for each Liga Bet division only clubs from its corresponding Liga Gimel divisions would be eligible for promotion (Upper Galilee and Lower Galilee to North A division, Jezreel and Samaria to North B division, etc.). The losing club in the third round of the play-offs would be first to be promoted, followed by points-per-match average in the league.
