The JCC Maccabi Games are an international athletic competition for Jewish teenagers that runs much like the Olympics. Athletes can compete against Jewish teens from all over the United States as well as delegations from Israel, Great Britain, Mexico, Canada, and more. The Games are played with a focus on “rachmanus” or sportsmanship with the intent to foster long-lasting friendships, memories, and connections to Judaism and Israel. More than 2,000 Jewish teens participate each summer.
Team New Orleans will participate in the JCC Maccabi Gamesand Access in Toronto from August 2-7, 2026. This year's Volunteer Delegation Head is Katie Dunn. Jonah White and Molly Dunn are members of the JCC Maccabi International Leadership Board.
