HaGolan VeHaGalil, also known as Bnei HaGolan VeHaGalil (lit.: sons of the Golan and the Galilee), or "Mamba" (based on the towns' initials), is an Israeli football club, playing in Liga Bet. The club was established in 2015 by Druze living in the Golan Heights, in the villages of Mas'ade, Majdal Shams, Buq'ata and Ein Qiniyye, which initials are incorporated in the club's name.[1]

Julis had the club finishing 2nd, three points short of promotion to Liga Bet.[5] In the 2016–2017, the club finished first in Liga Gimel - Upper Galilee Division, thereby earning promotion to Liga Bet.
