The Malha Arena (officially Lea and Maurice Goldberg Sports Hall) is the home arena of Hapoel Jerusalem basketball team. The arena is located in Jerusalem's Malha neighborhood, across from Ramat Denya and Ramat Sharett.

Malha Arena has a seating capacity of 2,246 permanent seats, with an additional 754 standing room. Despite its small size, the arena traps in noise and distracts the opposing team. This gives a boost to players towards the end of the game when they need it most, according to the coach of Hapoel Jerusalem, Oded Kattash.
