MENU
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 Pittsburgh Campus Games from August 3- August 8, 2025. Held on the campus of the University of Pittsburgh, competitions will occur at D1 Sports Facilities, and athletes will stay in on-campus dorms. This year's Volunteer Delegation Head is Katie Dunn.
To learn more, attend the next team meeting on Wednesday, April 23 at 6:30 PM or email teen@nojcc.org.

Stressed? If you're feeling it, chances are your child is feeling it too. You know the signs; when your mind starts racing and your heartbeat starts racing, your tendency is to get louder and faster. But what you and your body and your child need is for things to slow down and start making sense.
