Veteran Guard Yogev Ohayon Joins Elitzur Netanya for 2026/27 Season
Elitzur Netanya, recently relegated to the National League after finishing 13th last season, is preparing for the 2026/27 campaign with ambitions to return to the top division. On July 2, 2026, the club announced the signing of 39-year-old veteran point guard Yogev Ohayon on a one-year contract with an option for an additional season. This move marks the eighth team in Ohayon's professional career, following his recent years with Maccabi Ra'anana and Ironi Nahariya.
In addition to Ohayon, Elitzur Netanya is expected to finalize a similar contract with player Effi Tiumkin, also from the Sharon region. Earlier the same day, the club revealed new appointments in its leadership, naming Amit Sharaf as head coach and Shay Sigalovich as the club's professional manager. These changes reflect the club's strategic efforts to strengthen its roster and management as it aims for promotion back to the premier league.
