Yaakov Peled was one of the great talents that emerged at Beitar Jerusalem in the late 80s. A brutal injury that ended a promising career ("the ankle got stuck in the grass") ended his promised career.

Peled is married to Limor Limor who works in the State Attorney's Office, with three daughters. He is currently involved in sports and is a regular participant in triathlon competitions throughout the country. He was born on October 3, 1970, in Yehuda, in the regional 'Judean' corridor.
