Maccabi Ra'anana in a neighboring town, and was re-named Bnei HaSharon.

[5] The merger was entered into because of Maccabi Ra'anana's financial problems and Bnei HaSharon's
relegation from the top-level
Israeli Basketball Premier League , following the 2001–02 season.
At the end of 2010–11 season, the merger ended, and the team started playing only for the Israeli city of
Herzliya . In 2012, the club was re-named Bnei Herzliya.
[3] In 2022, the club won the Israeli State Cup for the second time, beating
Hapoel Tel Aviv 87:82 in the final.
