On Sunday, May 5, 2024, our JCC delegation of 55 Jewish athletes ages 9-12 years old attended the Mid Atlantic Mini and Junior Maccabi games, hosted by the Siegel JCC in Wilmington, DE. There were 750 athletes from 18 different northeast JCCs.
We competed in soccer, basketball and swim. Our swim team finished 2nd place overall and won 11 total medals. Our soccer team, mixed with athletes from Harrisburg, Bridgewater and Delaware won the silver medal.
The competition was fun and the bonds of friendship and Jewish community were strengthened. That is what the Mini and Junior Maccabi games are all about!
