The final will finally be held at Hafis Arena in the capital
Hapoel Haifa, which is used to facing Hapoel Jerusalem in the semi-finals stage, sent a sharp letter to the basketball association this evening, which read: "We were shocked by the decision to hold the semi-final matches of the State Cup in Jerusalem, and received an update on this from the media networks as the last of the fans.
A puzzling move by the heads of the basketball union to give in to self-interested pressures from the Jerusalem municipality and the hall's management to make every effort to hold the game at their place, and even reach a quick agreement, precisely after Po'el Jerusalem also came up."
"Immediately upon receiving the news, the club sent a strong letter to the basketball association protesting the scandalous decision.
We protest against the decision that reeks of politics after it was already announced that the games will be held in Holon following a disagreement about the costs.
The club intends to submit a petition to the union's tribunal and is even examining the possibility of petitioning a civil court.
We will use all the means at our disposal with the aim of trying to reverse the decision, which, beyond the sportsmanship that has been damaged, makes it difficult for the Hapoel Haifa fans and will harm the experience of the game."
