Maccabi Sha'arayim would have been promoted to Liga Artzit. however, shortly after their second leg victory over Maccabi Hadera, it was discovered that a resident of Rehovot (city of Maccabi Sha'arayim), attempted to bribe several players from Maccabi Hadera. as a result, Maccabi Sha'arayim were disqualified, and the promotion play-offs rearranged, between the third placed club in the South division, Hapoel Holon, and Maccabi Hadera.
