Hapoel Tel Aviv basketball announced Thursday that next season all players and coaching staff will reside in Israel and travel abroad only for games, according to N12. The decision comes as a lesson from losing the championship. This follows the club's earlier announcement that it would return to Shlomo Arena for league games next season. The new policy contrasts with the approach other Israeli clubs have taken amid the security situation — Hapoel Jerusalem recently said all its foreign players had requested to leave Israel. It remains unclear how this will affect the team's ability to recruit or retain foreign players.
