The Beitar Tel Aviv club will submit a slate of candidates for the Football Association's board of directors, led by former minister Issawi Frej and Shaul Schneider, chairman of the board of directors of Ashdod Port. The submission of this list ensures that elections for the Football Association's board will take place on December 8. Because Beitar Tel Aviv has previously been represented on the board, it is required to present letters of support from clubs totaling only 5% of the total points of member clubs, compared to the 20% threshold for a new slate. This guarantees that the list will be presented and the new board composition will be determined through elections, rather than by presenting a predetermined list without a democratic election process.

Schneider stated, "I hope we can achieve results in the elections and choose a new, diverse, and professional management that will advance Israeli football forward to achievements and successes." Frej added, "We are presenting a collaboration aimed at ensuring democratic elections for the Football Association's board, bringing diversity to the management, and ensuring there will be those who present new ideas and different thinking."
