The morning after scoring a brace in the Toto Cup, Maccabi Tel Aviv striker Eden Ben Basat got up extra early and joined midfielder Eliel Peretz and Maccabi Tel Aviv FC Foundation Head Josh Halickman at the Annual Football Tournament in Memory of Tomer Hazan z”l who died in a terrorist attack a few years ago.
The Yellow & Blue had always played an integral part in Tomer’s life, so along with his friends and family a football tournament was started at the school he attended as did Eliel Peretz. Tomer’s brother Yossi said: “We were 4 boys in the family and we all fell in love with Maccabi Tel Aviv. Tomer was a season ticket holder and the Saturday following his death the fans and the Club paid tribute to him. This tournament is a continuation of his life and has the attributes of sports, friendship and Maccabi all rolled up into one.”
