Maccabi Games
Overview
The JCC Maccabi Games® have been offering a life-and personality-shaping experience to Jewish teenagers since 1982. Now you can be one of the 6,000 teens from around the world to participate in this five-day Olympic-style sporting event held each summer in several North American cities.
Beyond the athletic competition, the Games promote community involvement, teamwork, and pride in being Jewish.
