History
Bnei Yeechalal Rehovot Football Club was founded in 2007 and joined Liga Gimel. In 2008–09, their second season of existence, the club finished on top of Liga Gimel Central division, level on points with Hapoel Rahat and F.C. Kiryat Gat, and had to face both clubs in a three-way promotion play-off. Bnei Yeechalal remained in Liga Gimel, after they lost both matches, 2–3 to F.C. Kiryat Gat and 1–3 to Hapoel Rahat. However, in the following season, they won their division and were promoted to Liga Bet.
The club's best placing to date was the sixth place in Liga Bet South B division, which was achieved in the 2014–15 season.
Bnei Jehudal war in den 1990er und frühen 2000er Jahren einer der erfolgreichsten Vereine Israels und gewann 1998 einmal die israelische Meisterschaft und zweimal den israelischen Pokal (1996 und 2001). In den letzten Jahren hat der Verein jedoch mit finanziellen Problemen zu kämpfen, die zu mehreren Abstiegen geführt haben.
Zu den bekanntesten Spielern, die Bnei Jehudal hervorgebracht hat, gehören Benny Tabala, Eyal Berkovic, Yossi Benayoun und Toto Tamuz.
