The 1955–56 Hapoel Balfouria season was the club's 13th season since its establishment, in 1942, and 8th since the establishment of the State of Israel.
At the start of the season, the league which started during the previous season was completed, with the club finishing 14th (out of 14), which meant the club relegated to the second division, which was renamed Liga Alef, and played in this division during the remainder of the season, finishing 12th (out of 12), relegating to the third division ahead of the next season.
The league began on 6 February 1955, and by the time the previous season ended, only 20 rounds of matches were completed, with the final 6 rounds being played during September and October 1955.[1]
