History
The club was founded in 2003 and joined Liga Gimel Western Galilee (now defunct) in the 2003–04 season, after the previous club from the Old City of Acre, Hapoel Bnei Acre, dissolved after it was last active in the previous season.
In the 2006–07 season, the club won Liga Gimel Upper Galilee division, and were promoted to Liga Bet. In the 2009–10 season, the club won Liga Bet North A division and were promoted to Liga Alef. In their first season in Liga Alef North division, Ahi Acre narrowly avoided the Relegation play-offs, after they finished eleventh. However, in the following season, they finished bottom, after winning only three games and relegated back to Liga Bet, where they play today.

Known for their attacking style of play and strong defensive organization, Ahi Acre has produced many talented players over the years who have gone on to represent the Israeli national team.
