JCC Maccabi Games

Maccabi Mania
San Diego, California
August 3-8, 2008
Ages 13-16
It’s time for the Tucson JCC to head to the 26th annual JCC Maccabi Games. Competition takes place in numerous sports but the games are more than just sports, they also have a social and community service component to the week. This will be the 13th year Tucson has taken part in this gala event.
Throughout the years nearly 600 athletes have represented Tucson. This year we hope to continue the tradition by entering Tucson teens in boys and girls basketball, swimming, tennis, and bowling.
If you are a Jewish teen who will be 13 years old before August 1 and will not reach 17 until after the 1st, we are looking for you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to meet, socialize and compete. Some teams sports will have tryouts.
For more information concerning the JCC Maccabi games please contact Stu Epstein, Delegation Head for Tucson at 299-3000, x193 or sepstein@tucsonjcc.org.
