The JCC Maccabi Games® is the largest Jewish youth event in the world.
Get in the Games.
From July 28 to August 2, 2024, our community will welcomed 1,200 Jewish teens from across the globe and involved thousands of members from our own community, including 400 host families, 1,000 volunteers and 200 local athletes.

- Learn the values of teamwork, integrity, cultural pride, community service and lifelong friendship
- Provide Jewish youth with a supportive environment that fosters mutual respect and sportsmanship, where they can interact in an atmosphere of fun, democracy and peace
- Cultivate a deeper understanding and instill an appreciation of Jewish values
- Promote and encourage the health, physical fitness and well-being of Jewish youth through participation in recreational and athletic activities
