The club was founded in 1936 by Shmuel Kirschstein and David Horn, who chaired the similarly named Betar branch in Jerusalem. Several team members were also part of the outlawed Irgun and Lehi militias closely associated with the right-wing Revisionist Zionism movement. The club has traditionally worn with kit colours in yellow and black. The team has played its home matches in the 31,733-capacity Teddy Stadium in the Malha neighborhood of Jerusalem since 1991.
