In 2011, the mayor of Be'er Sheva, Mr. Rubik Danilovich, laid the foundation for a project that had been widely discussed, the building of a new and modern football stadium to serve as the home of the city's football teams, especially Hapoel Be'er Sheva.
The stadium was to have 16,000 seats, all set to meet the strict standards of the UEFA and FIFA
Most of the funding for the project, which totaled approximately 200 million NIS, was provided by Toto. It was for this reason that in 2011 it was decided that the stadium would be named The Toto Stadium in Be'er Sheva
The local government wanted to include the culture of Be'er Sheva in the stadium and therefore decided to add the name of the former mayor, Mr. Yaakov Terner to the name of the stadium. This made the name of the stadium the Toto Stadium in Be'er Sheva named after Yaakov Turner
