The organisation of football in Israel is based on a hierarchical league system, allowing clubs to ascend or descend based on their performance. This system is divided into several tiers, ranging from professional football to amateur football.
At the top of the hierarchy is the Israeli Premier League, which is the highest level of Israeli football. It comprises 14 clubs that compete for the title of Israeli champion. The bottom two clubs in the standings at the end of the season are relegated to the Liga Leumit, which also includes 16 clubs. The top two teams from this division are promoted to the Israeli Premier League, while the bottom two descend to the Liga Alef.
The Liga Alef, the third tier, is divided into two regional divisions (north and south) and includes a total of 32 teams. The champions of each division are promoted to Liga Leumit, while the bottom three from each division descend to the Liga Bet.
The Liga Bet, the fourth tier of Israeli football, is organised into four regional divisions. It includes amateur clubs as well as reserve teams from professional outfits. Beyond Liga Bet, the system continues with regional and local divisions, highlighting the depth and richness of Israeli football at all levels of competition.
