Maccabi Games are the Jewish Olympics
I worked the Varsity level kids at the Atlanta Maccabi games, not sure on spelling. I had the Championship girls and boys of the 16 year olds. These are considered the Jewish Olympics for youth. It is held every 4 years at a different location. The level of Basketball was pretty good. Probably like single A level or maybe a little higher than Christian Varsity. The pay was decent at $35.00 per game. I did about 4 games a day for the week. So made some good vacation money. The kids were well disciplined and majority of coaches respectful. I enjoyed the experience.
