The Springfield JCC organizes "Team Springfield Maccabi" for Jewish teens (ages 13-17) to participate in the annual JCC Maccabi Games, an Olympic-style, week-long international summer competition focusing on athletics, Jewish culture, and community service, with the upcoming 2026 Games set for Toronto, Canada (August 2-7), offering sports like basketball, hockey, soccer, and more for teens in MA, CT, and Westchester County, NY.

The benefits of attending Maccabi are transformative. Participants develop a deeper connection to their Jewish heritage, and lifelong bonds with their Jewish peers from all over the world. They increase their confidence and pride, while honing their skills in the sports they love. But the financial costs of attending are a stretch for some families. To help offset the cost of attending, please click on an athlete’s name, or on the last circle, which will be distributed to those need, at the discretion of Team Springfield staff. THANK YOU!
