The 1928 People's Cup (Hebrew: גביע העם, Gvia HaAm) was the first season of Israeli Football Association's nationwide football cup competition.
Hapoel Allenby Tel Aviv won the cup, beating Maccabi Hasmonean Jerusalem 2–0 in the final.
However, the Jerusalem club appealed to the F.A., claiming that a Hapoel player, Moshe Meir was not registered.
[1][2] The appeal was accepted and the teams were ordered to share the cup.
[3][4] Starting in 1922, unofficial cup competitions were held in Mandatory Palestine on an annual, national basis under the sponsorship of Britain's military garrison there, at start involving British teams only, but in subsequent years, Arab and Jewish teams as well.
