Introduction

Some football club flags in Israel have the same pattern, a vertical triband in the team colours with logo and inscription. Sometimes the sponsor's name is also added.
Santiago Dotor said: "The 3:5 ratio is quite unusual in Israeli flags." All ratios of Israel non-official flags could change from day to day ... I guess it depends on manufacturing reasons. The football flags that I saw are made in several ratios for each team. The one that I got is 90 × 150 cm, so I drew them as 3:5.

Hapo'el means 'The Worker'. All those clubs used to belong to the Histadrut worker's union, hence their name. Now all of them are privately owned but keep their former name, usually with their sponsor's name added – like Hapo'el "Opel" Haifa, Hapoel "Keter" Tel-Aviv, etc.

Moadon Sport Ashdod changed its colors to red-yellow, so the flag above is now obsolete. Official website at fcashdod.ashdod4u.com.

Hapoel Jerusalem Football Club

The flag shown on this photo shows a slightly different version of the logo, with the text rendered in a more classic, less squarish typeface. It seems to be vertically divided in 4 or 5 stripes, with a wider white striped containing the logo in black, surrounded by two black stripes and either one extra red stripe at the fly or the same and another also at the hoist, as it is obscured on the photo.
The emblem itself shows a human figure in profile in archer pose surrounded by what seems to be a sickle and a hammer, the latter pointing down.
Similarly named Hapoel Be'er Sheva F.C., Hapoel Petah Tikva F.C., and Hapoel Tel-Aviv F.C. share this motif in their logos, as reported by Dov Gutterman, but not so the likewise similarly named Hapoel Haifa F.C.
