Maccabi Tel Aviv is a synonym of words like victory, achievements and success, in Israeli sports and also throughout Europe. The Club was established with the team colors of blue and white in 1932. In the early 1940’s the club embraced the color yellow as an act of solidarity to wear the yellow Star of David on their clothes.
