Maccabi Tel Aviv may be in the middle of the national team and pitch winterization break but until the action on the pitch returns we’ve decided to look at you, the fans. Actually to be even more precise, the Club’s 2017/18 Season Ticket Holders.
It’s fairly clear that the city with the most season ticket holders is Tel Aviv with 1,328 living within the city’s boundaries.
Rishon Le’Zion is in second place with 710 season ticket holders for the current campaign while Holon finds itself in 3rd place with 510.
After Holon you’ll find a number of cities in the Gush Dan area including Ramat Gan, Herzliya, Giv`atayim, Ramat Hasharon and Bat Yam. Outside of the Gush Dan area you can also locate season ticket holders in Raanana, Modiin and Rehovot.
If you asked yourself how many Netanya residents hold season tickets you would find that there are 125 up from last year’s 116.
A big round of applause goes to the 14 season ticket holders from Eilat which find themselves the furthest away from the stadium than any other supporter by a whopping 390 km!
How about the other side of the country? Those in the north include 5 from Safed that make their way to Netanya for every home contest, while there are 4 in Katzrin. Believe it or not, in the northern city of Nahariya there are no less than 34 season ticket holders.
Another incredible fact is that there are 128 fans who are the only ones who live in their specific community. We don’t know if they come to the Stadium themselves or with others but that’s a pretty cool stat. Some smaller communities include Nir Oz by the Gaza border, Nitzani Sinai by the Egyptian border as well as Goren in the western Galilee.
All in all, Maccabi Tel Aviv has fans in 380 different locations around Israel.
