Former Striker Shimon Abuhatzira Appointed Coach of Maccabi Netanya Women's Team
As the 2026/27 women's football season approaches, Maccabi Netanya has announced a surprising summer appointment. Former striker Shimon Abuhatzira has been named head coach of Maccabi Netanya's women's team competing in the National League. This appointment comes while his son, 16-year-old Yarin Abuhatzira, is making an impressive start in the club's senior men's team. Yarin recently scored in his debut for the senior squad during a Toto Cup match, leading to a 3-1 victory over Hapoel Jerusalem last Saturday. The club's dual involvement of father and son highlights a unique family presence within Maccabi Netanya's football structure this season.
